1 Iker Casillas
Iker Casillas is both Real Madrid and Spain’s top goalkeeper and was one of the finalists for 2008's Ballon d'Or award after leading Spain to the Euro 2008 title.
He started his career with Real as a teenager and has rejected all offers to leave the club. He has played over 400 games and has a contract keeping him at the Bernabeu until 2017.
Internationally, Casillas has played for Spain since the age of 14, never missing an age-group on his way to the senior team. He made his senior debut in 2000 and is the second-most capped goalkeeper in Spanish history behind Andoni Zubizareta (126). He was in the Euro 2000, 2004 and 2008 teams, as well as the 2002 and 2006 World Cups.
