On Friday, December 26, 2025, Sergio Llull will step onto the court and make history once again, playing his 1,000th official game for Real Madrid.

Born on November 15, 1987, in Mahón, Menorca, Llull joined Real Madrid during the 2006–07 season, making his first-team debut on May 17, 2007.

- 1× FIBA Intercontinental Cup Champion
These trophies tell the story of sustained dominance — and Llull has been at the center of it all.
