Gone are the promises of an increasingly international Real Imanol with only nine players available for the first break of the season. The injured are also there, but he won’t be able to work much in the sessions that will take place in Zubieta this week. Real’s 11 internationals – in principle there were 12 with Becker, but he decided to stay – will play between September 5 and 11 in two matches with their respective teams, and then they will return home to prepare for the difficult league match against Real Madrid on Saturday, September 14. Some, such as hut either Aramburuthey will come to the appointment itself.
La Real will have representatives in the Spanish national team, senior and under-21, in the Moroccan, Icelandic, Japanese, Venezuelan and Croatian teams. European teams will play the first matches of the UEFA Nations League, while the national team of Santi Denia will play two qualifying matches for the European Championship. Aguerd will play two qualifying matches for the African Cup of Nations, and Aramburu the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup as well Take Kubo with the Japanese team.
Real’s recent signings will not have time to acclimatize to Zubieta, as upon their arrival they will have to concentrate on their respective teams. Other players who could use a little rest, like a Oyarzabal which was found to be quite slow, will also continue to play. The only one decided to stay in Donostia to work under the orders of Imanol has been Sheraldo Beckeras this newspaper reported yesterday. La Real will also be present in Las Rozas at the concentration of the Spanish under-19 team, which will not play matches, but will train for five days under the command of Paco Gallardo. The coach called the young players Dani Díaz, Pablo Arenzana and Iker Roberto.
