Casillas was born in Mostoles (Madrid)

Casillas claims that he only became a goalkeeper under duress, stuck between the goalposts while his football-mad father peppered him with shots.

At the age of 17, Casillas was pulled out of his high-school art class with the news that he was in the squad for Madrid’s upcoming UEFA Champions League game.

Having started the 2001/02 UEFA Champions League Final in Glasgow as a substitute, Casillas leapt off the bench to replace his injured colleague and almost single-handedly kept Madrid in the game, pulling off a series of incredible saves to deny a rampant Bayer Leverkusen side.

Having won the hearts and minds of followers of Spanish football, it would be his performances during the 2004/05 campaign that earned him the nickname ‘Saint Iker’.

Focused, cool under pressure, agile, and blessed with lightning reflexes, Casillas is solidity personified, a defender’s dream. Fearless and quick off his line, Casillas specialises in one-on-one situations and is not afraid to give his senior defensive colleagues a good ear-bashing, should the situation arise.

casillas has become something of a life insurance policy in recent years for a Madrid side not known for its defensive solidity. At national team level, he continues to be Spain’s undisputed first-choice, despite fierce competition from the likes of Pepe Reina, Víctor Valdes and Santiago Canizares.

2004/05: Widely lauded as the team’s best player, a smattering of outstanding performances saw him hailed as 'Saint Iker' in the national press, conceding only 30 goals in 36 Primera División matches for the runners-up.


Other nickname: ikerman
El Gato - The Cat

when i posted this topic i didn't notice there was another one like it, but today i've been searching all the old topics and i found 2 very similar,so vera this is just a suggestion maybe iker's profile should be pinned not only to prevent it from being posted again but also coz many people who search for news about iker are usually interested in his profle.
:real madrid:

Not only is Iker a great person on the pitch, he’s got one of the biggest hearts off it and always makes himself available to lend a helping hand.

i like this one:

Casillas is quite superstitious, and whenever one his teammates scores, he has to touch the crossbar of his own goal.

Two things he misses most since becoming a household name are visiting the local amusement park and traveling on the city’s subway.

He's been quoted as saying that he’d like to be President of Real Madrid at some point down the road.
