MADRID - A Spanish soccer team opened a bank account Thursday to collect donations for an 85-year-old woman whose eviction last week from her Madrid apartment sparked an outcry, team officials said. Lauri Markkanen Authentic Jersey .Rayo Vallecano president Raul Martin Presa said his club will also donate money from ticket sales from its next home game to help Carmen Martinez pay for a place to live.She was evicted last Friday from the apartment she owned and lived in for decades in Madrids working-class neighbourhood of Vallecas, where Rayo plays in the Spanish leagues first division.Her son had used the apartment as collateral for a 40,000-euro ($50,000) loan and couldnt make payments after losing his job.Associated Press photos of the eviction spurred intense Spanish media coverage of Martinezs plight and prompted the club to help her. Rayo is also based in the Vallecas neighbourhood.Nobody likes these types of things — what happened to Carmen or to many other families, especially with evictions, Rayo coach Paco Jemez said.Evictions have soared since Spains economic crisis began in 2008. Last years forced evictions totalled 2,060, while there were 1,547 during the first six months of 2014, statistics show.Jemez said the team hasnt yet discussed its effort with Martinez, who couldnt be reached to comment and is believed to be staying with her son. If she ends up finding housing, Jemez said, the money gathered by the club will be given to another needy cause.The original idea was to help a woman who it seemed had been left with absolutely nothing, Jemez said. If some authority now offers her a decent place to live, the money will be redirected elsewhere.The case triggered criticism of Madrid*s city government for not finding a solution before the team made its offer last Sunday.Madrid Mayor Ana Botella has said government-subsidized housing was offered to Martinez, but rejected because she hoped the eviction wouldnt happen, and that the offer is still valid.___Associated Press writers Alan Clendenning and Jorge Sainz in Madrid contributed to this report.

They swung for a much higher fence with the eighth overall pick on Friday night, landing the "electrifying" William Nylander from Sweden. A speedy, highlight-reel winger, he is the son of longtime NHL centre Michael Nylander and the first European Toronto has drafted in the first round since Jiri Tlusty in 2006. Nylander is also the first draft pick of the Brendan Shanahan era and an injection of homegrown game-breaking ability, long-starved within the Leaf organization. "Hes got high, high-end skill," gushed general manager Dave Nonis, shortly after the pick was made.  And that fills a need within the prospect ranks of the organization, considerably deprived over the years. Though hopeful that the likes of Carter Verhaeghe, Connor Brown and Andreas Johnson may eventually make an impact of sorts with the big club, the Leafs simply did not boast a game-breaker with Nylanders ceiling beyond the NHL club (and have not historically). They havent landed many at all from the draft. Vincent Damphousse, picked sixth overall in 1986, was the last homegrown player to register at least 80 points in a season as a Leaf. Toronto has, additionally, sent only two homegrown players to the All-Star game in the past 20 years, neither of whom was a forward (Tomas Kaberle and Felix Potvin). Dealing first round picks – as they did five times from 2003-2011 – certainly didnt help the matter. Nylander may or may not make it, but he, at the very least, represents the kind of high upside, homegrown talent the organization has mostly lacked, especially up front – Nazem Kadri, who scored 20 goals as a 23-year-old last season, was a recent exception. Nonis wouldnt go as far as to say that adding skill was a priority, but labeled it "an area of weakness". "He might be the most skilled player in the draft," said the Leafs GM of Nylander. Nonis saw that skill firsthand at the Under-18 tournament in Finland this past April.  Nylander, playing for Sweden, led all players with 16 points in seveen games, notching six goals along the way.

"He has NHL speed, NHL hands, an NHL shot right now," Nonis said. "Its whether or not the rest of his game can catch up." Unwilling to pay Dale Tallons price for the first overall pick and rights to draft Aaron Ekblad, Nonis said he actually considered moving down if one of two players – Nylander among them – wasnt there to be had with the eighth pick. Nylander grew up around the NHL, his father totaling 920 NHL games for seven different teams. That kept the younger Nylander in North America until the age of 14 when he moved to Sweden, eventually playing alongside his 40-year-old dad last year (with Rogle in the second-tier league).  "I like to score goals and make plays," Nylander said, projecting an aura of confidence and cool, noticeably unfazed by all that surrounded him. A free agent and thus able to come to North America next year if he and the organization so choose, Nylander will audition for the Leafs in the fall.  "Hell definitely have a chance to make our team," Nonis said. "[But] I really dont care how skilled you are, its very difficult to make the NHL as an 18-year-old. I think itd be a long shot for him to do that, but hes going to be given that opportunity and if hes good enough to stick and play and contribute then we would keep him. If not, well decide at that point whether its best to keep him over in North America or to have him go back to Sweden to play in the Elite League." Nylander boasts a "VERY high ceiling" according to Mark Seidel, chief scout for North American Central Scouting, but has been trailed by attitude questions, something Nonis brushed aside as outward confidence. Like most draftees, the new Leaf prospect will have to get bigger and stronger before he is likely to make the leap to the NHL, additionally requiring some acclimation to the North American ice surface. "It may take him a month to acclimate, it might take him over a year – I dont know that," said Nonis. "But the skill-set is very high end."
