Jose Luis Mato Sanmartin, known as Joselu, has moved to Real Madrid from Espanyol on a season-long loan.
“Real Madrid and Espanyol de Barcelona have reached an agreement for the loan of the player Joselu, who will play for the club for the next season, with an option to buy at the end of the season,” Real Madrid said in a statement on Monday.
