Who is Fran Gonzalez?
The young man from the base of Real Madrid, Fran Gonzalez, is quoted to start the weekendin La Liga game against Valencia, and may also be necessary in the middle of the week, against Arsenal, in the Champions League.
Gonzalez arrived at the European giant in 2022coming from the team of Third Spanish, Cultural Leoness. Since 2023, it has been a frequent presence among the main team related. Thibaut Courtois’ injuries at various times of the season made Gonzalez several times on the bench as a reserve of Andriy Lunin, but he has not yet entered the field.
In the weeks when it is not necessary in the main team bank, Gonzalez play for Real Madrid Castilla, where he conceded 19 goals and defended three penalties in 16 games.
“Gonza”, as it is affectionately called, has also passed the U19 Spanish national team, acting regularly in the European Championship qualifiers in early 2024. Last November, he was summoned to the U21 team, but did not go to the friendly against England and Denmark, behind Aitor Fraga (Real Sociedad) and Alejandro Iturbe (Atletico de Madrid).
This uncle, which seems to be Fran González, aims to be our titular goalkeeper vs Valencia.
I guess Lunin, like Courtois, will be touched and can’t play.
This means that in my books Fran González is a goalkeeper and that he is banked to full.

What happened to Courtois and Lunin?
After the long -awaited return to Belgium team, Real Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois suffered a muscle injury during the warming of the team’s second match against Ukraine.
Initially, it was believed that Courtois’s replacement was only by precaution, but he has been out of two Real Madrid games since the return of club competitions and, according to reports, could waste even more time.
Meanwhile, journalist Sergio Lopez, from As, said the reserve Andriy Lunin suffered a calf injury early in the second half against Real Sociedad, playing the last 40 minutes even though it was not 100%. The severity of the injury is not yet known, but the report indicates that it may be removed for up to three weeks.
