Jacobo Ortega Conde (born 29 May 2006) is a Spanish professional footballer who plays as a forward for Real Madrid C.

Early life

Ortega was born on 29 May 2006 in Madrid, Spain and is a native of the city. Growing up, he enjoyed watching American television show Prison Break and studied business administration.[1]

Career

As a youth player, Ortega joined the youth academy of La Liga side Real Madrid, where he played in the UEFA Youth League, and was promoted to the club's C team ahead of the 2024–25 season.[2] The same year, he was promoted to their reserve team.[3]

Style of play

Ortega plays as a forward. Spanish news website Relevo wrote in 2025 that he "is a striker profile that is scarce in Spanish youth teams. A powerful, tall, and goal-scoring striker of the past, he also possesses the talents of today's forwards: he's active outside the box, is physical, and has the quality to make a difference with passes and assists".[4]
