His father was born in Villarrubia de los Ojos and his mother in Herencia, both in the province of Ciudad Real. When he was only 18 months old, his family emigrated to Madrid.[3][4]

With a degree in journalism from the Complutense University of Madrid, he began working as an editor in Madrid for two newspapers belonging to the Godó Group: Mundo Deportivo (1985–1989) and La Vanguardia (1989–1992).[5]

He then worked for the Colpisa news agency and, in 1992, was hired by the newspaper El Mundo, where he remained for nine years. Later, he joined the editorial staff of the newspaper diario AS, where he remains as editor-in-chief. During his time there, he has specialized in information about Real Madrid, a team of which he is an avowed fan.
