Club career

[edit]

Real Madrid

[edit]

Blanco made his La Liga debut for Real Madrid on 18 April 2021, in a goalless draw against Getafe, coming on as a substitute.[2] He was handed his first start three days later, in a 3–0 win over Cádiz.[3]

Loans to Cádiz and Alavés

[edit]

In August 2022, he moved to Cádiz on a season-long loan deal.[4][5] Blanco was recalled in January 2023[6] and joined Segunda División club Alavés until the end of the season.[7]

Alavés

[edit]

On 25 July 2023, Blanco signed for Alavés permanently until June 2027.[8][9]

International career

[edit]

Due to the isolation of some national team players following the positive COVID-19 test of Sergio Busquets, Spain's under-21 squad were called up for the international friendly against Lithuania on 8 June 2021.[10] Blanco made his senior debut in the match as Spain won 4–0.[11]
