FC Barcelona have settled their first-team goalkeeping hierarchy with Joan Garcia as the expected starter and Wojciech Szczesny providing experienced backup.
But one position remains undecided ahead of the new season: the third goalkeeper.
Following Diego Kochen’s loan move to Lyngby, Inaki Pena’s transfer to Panathinaikos, after returning from loan at Elche, and Ander Astralaga’s departure after his contract expired, the club must now select a new third-choice keeper.
Now, according to Mundo Deportivo, the decision is expected to come down to two highly regarded prospects from the Barcelona youth academy: Iker Rodriguez and Eder Aller.
18-year-old Rodriguez is still eligible to play youth football but is considered one of the brightest goalkeeping talents in La Masia.
