CHATTANOOGA, USA: David Raya believes Spain “are in good hands” no matter who starts the World Cup in goal as he battles with Unai Simon and Joan Garcia to be Luis de la Fuente’s number one.
Raya enjoyed an outstanding season at Arsenal, helping the Gunners to a first Premier League title in 22 years and reach the Champions League final.
Garcia also shone as Barcelona won La Liga, but they are reportedly set to miss out as Simon is expected to start.
The Athletic Bilbao stopper has been Spain’s number one at the past three major tournaments, including when La Roja won Euro 2024.
“I think Spain is in good hands, whoever plays,” Raya told a press conference on Saturday at Spain’s training base in Chattanooga.
