The keeper said after their Champions League win at Brest: “I had a brief phone conversation with Garcia. He will come to Madrid in the near future.
“I want to play in the 2026 World Cup. I have always had that goal in mind, but I had problems with the previous national coach. In the end, I was right. Will I be in March against Ukraine? We’ll see if the coach calls me.
“There were never any problems within the group of players. It was just a conflict with the previous coach, but I will talk more about it in a press conference."
