Luis de la Fuente to Decide Spain's Goalkeeper Count on May 25
Luis de la Fuente will decide on 25 May whether Spain will travel to the 2026 World Cup with three or four goalkeepers. The decision comes as the final squad for the tournament is being assembled.
Unai Simón is regarded as untouchable in the selection process. His position in the squad is considered secure.
Joan García is applying pressure to be included among the goalkeepers. His performances have put him in contention for a spot.
Alex Remiro is the most exposed candidate. The decision will determine if he joins the World Cup roster.
The outcome will define the depth of the goalkeeper department for Spain at the tournament. A three‑goalkeeper roster would limit options compared with a four‑goalkeeper selection.
The announcement on 25 May will complete Spain’s squad list for the 2026 World Cup. Fans and analysts will await the final decision.
