Samu Castillejo and Víctor Ruiz win with the Under 17s
The Malaguista player, Samu Castillejo, participated in Spain’s triumph against Italy in an Under 17s match. The international friendly, played in Asturias, resulted in a 5-1 win for the national side.
Samu, as attacking midfielder, was in the line-up devised by Spain Under 17s manager, Santi Denia, who had also called-up Blue and Whites player Víctor Ruiz, although he wasn’t in the starting eleven. Spain proved to be far superior to their rival, winning 5-1 with goals from Sandro Ramírez (2), Álex Serrano, Bustos and Calero.
Both Castillejo and Ruiz are regulars in this national squad whose short term objective is to prepare for the Under 17s Mini-tournament in Georgia, taking place between 26th and 31st March.
