The Reus goalkeeper has returned to the team's goal in the match played in Sant Andreu, after a period of forced inactivity. Last September 2025, the player suffered a severe head injury during a match against Valencia Mestalla, which required hospitalization and a long recovery process.
This injury coincided with a time when he had established himself as a starter after signing for the red-and-black team that same summer. During his absence, another goalkeeper took over the starting position, but the player from Riudoms continued to train diligently, awaiting a new opportunity.
“"He is a born worker."
The coaching staff's decision to give him another chance came in an extremely difficult match, against the league leader and with the objective of the promotion play-off at stake. Despite conceding two unstoppable goals, the goalkeeper conveyed emotional balance and security, remaining calm in front of the 6,500 spectators who filled the Narcís Sala stadium.
The goalkeeper is expected to continue in the decisive upcoming match against UE Olot at the Estadi, a game considered a final for Reus' play-off aspirations. His calmness and good relationship with his teammates have been key factors in earning the coaching staff's trust. Currently, the goalkeeper combines his passion for football with preparation for future public examinations, and has established his residence in Castellvell.
The Reus team will resume training this Wednesday, with their sights set on this potentially historic match. Victory is mandatory in front of fans who are expected to fill the stadium to support their players, including the goalkeeper, in the fight for a qualification that would propel them towards the play-off.
