"The competition for places in the Spanish national team continues to intensify, especially in the goalkeeping department. With several high-level options available, every call-up becomes a talking point, and Real Sociedad goalkeeper Alex Remiro is right at the centre of that battle. Under national team coach Luis de la Fuente, the goalkeeping hierarchy appears relatively clear. However, Barcelona stopper Joan Garcia is widely expected to earn his debut soon. If that happens, it could directly affect players like Remiro, who are fighting to secure their place in the squad."
"It bothers me when there have been derogatory comments, but I understand where I am. I understand the level of my teammates, and I understand the level of the goalkeeping, because it's very high. I've said it before: I'm focusing on this season, on proving that I can go and on preparing myself. If I do that, I'm at peace with myself. If I go, I'll contribute from where I am."

Remiro is concentrating on his season, aiming to prove his readiness and prepare so he can contribute if selected. Club encounters have sometimes framed goalkeeper matchups as personal duels.
