European Champions Real Madrid have signed Spanish international Pedro Munitis Alvarez on a five-year-deal from Primera Liga rivals Racing Santander, the club announced Tuesday.
Details of the transfer were not released although the Spanish press reported that the deal was in the region of $10m dollars.
"It's a dream come true," said the 25-year-old winger and scorer of the second of Spain's goals in the dramatic 4-3 win over Yugoslavia, which enabled Spain to qualify for the Euro 2000 quarterfinals.
