Álvaro Leiva Alemany

Álvaro Leiva Alemany is a Spanish forward from Algeciras, born on 28 December 2004. He developed with his hometown club, Algeciras, and broke into its first team as a teenager during the 2021–22 season. Operating mainly from the wing, Leiva combined direct dribbling with carries from deep and attacks on the flank, while also showing the ability to move inside. His performances earned him a move to Real Madrid in July 2022, where he joined the club’s development structure and continued his progression with Real Madrid Castilla. Loan spells during the following seasons limited his opportunities, although the experience broadened his competitive background. Leiva later returned to the Real Madrid system and was recalled to Castilla, keeping his route toward senior football open.
