A center with roots in Alhaurín el Grande and experience in the Málaga youth basketball system has made a significant career move by joining the University of Wisconsin, a prestigious institution in US collegiate basketball.

The player, who previously trained at Los Guindos academy and was a U19 world champion with Spain, is now part of a high-level sports program. The University of Wisconsin competes in the Big 10, one of the nation's most prominent conferences, which has also featured other athletes from the region.

"Victory's arrival to our program is a magnificent addition to our team. He is an extremely talented and athletic interior player who provides us with excellent rim pressure in transition, alley-oop threat in the half-court, shot-blocking ability, and consistent rebounding. In addition to perfectly complementing our roster, he is an extraordinary person whom Badgers fans will be thrilled to get to know."

During his previous season at Hofstra, the 2.11-meter tall center played 35 games, starting 17 of them. He led his team in rebounds, averaging 6.9 per game, and contributed 4.7 points. He also excelled in offensive rebounds (91) and blocks (36), recording two double-doubles and a 56.6% field goal percentage. His participation in the 2026 NCAA Tournament with Hofstra marked a significant achievement for his former university.
Before his move to the United States, the athlete played in national leagues such as LEB Oro and Plata with teams including Huesca, Talavera, Obradoiro, and Prat. His career also includes winning the U18 European Championship and the U19 World Cup with the Spanish national team, keeping him on the radar of ACB clubs, including Unicaja.
