Joselu is grateful for a second chance at Real Madrid.

The former Castilla striker has joined Real on a season-long loan for next term.

He said at Tuesday's presentation: "Everything has changed a lot. I've been a madridista since I was a kid and when the opportunity came up to sign here when I came to Castilla it was a huge moment. I remember it as one of the best days of my life. You're 18 or 19 years old and you don't appreciate it in the same way as you do now, but you come here and you soak up everything that this club transmits. I learnt values that only Real Madrid has, and that has enabled me to achieve big goals in my footballing and personal life, above all.

"This was sealed a few days ago. I didn't tell my children anything until the last minute, because when you're in negotiations you never know what might happen. But when the interest comes, it's what any player has dreamed of all his life. I don't think my children and my wife believe it yet. We want to enjoy the moment."

On the moe, the 33 year-old added: "The first contact I have with Real Madrid, other players are never mentioned. Madrid has certain values and they always respect any contact with a player. They've been great in that respect. We've all done our bit to make this happen. The club has also respected what was going on in my club and until they found out what was going on, I didn't know anything about this situation."
