Tomás Mejías Osorio (born 30 January 1989 in Madrid) is a Spanish footballer who plays for Real Madrid Castilla in Segunda División, as a goalkeeper.
Football career
In 2001, aged 12, Mejías joined local Real Madrid's youth academy from neighbouring amateurs CD Coslada. He made his professional debuts in the 2007–08 season, playing five games for the reserves in the third division.
As first-team manager José Mourinho decided to rest Iker Casillas, Mejías was selected for a La Liga home match against Getafe CF, on 10 May 2011. He replaced another club youth graduate, Antonio Adán, for the last ten minutes of a 4–0 home win.[1]
Mejías was selected in a 20-men squad for the first match of the 2011–12 campaign, at Real Zaragoza,[2] being awarded the #52 jersey, but eventually did not make the bench.
