This superb image was signed by goalkeeping legend Iker Casillas in permanent black ink at a private signing session organised and carried out by Icons in Madrid on January 29, 2010.
It shows Casillas celebrating after the final whistle of Madrid's derby match against Atletico Madrid at the Vicente Calderon stadium on November 7, 2009. Madrid beat their close city rivals 3-2.
Casillas is a Madrid legend, having already played more than 350 games for Los Merengues despite still being in his twenties. He won his first of two Champions League winners medal aged only 19 in 2000 and has also picked up five winners medals in La Liga.
With over 100 caps to his name already, he also captained Spain to their Euro 2008 victory over Germany.
The photo, which is 16x12 inches in size, comes with an official certificate of authenticity featuring an image of Casillas signing the photo. Only 20 of these photos were signed, making it a highly collectable piece of sports memorabilia. This is the first time Casillas has undertaken an official signing session.
