Real Sociedad is getting ready to close its league season this Sunday at the Santiago Bernabéu, but the most interesting part will begin after the final whistle. With Sergio Francisco as the new coach, the sports management of the Basque club is already working on planning the next project, and in that process, an unexpected departure could occur: Álex Remiro.

The Navarrese goalkeeper, who has been one of the mainstays of Real during the season, is on Aston Villa's radar. According to EstadioDeportivo, the English team, led by Unai Emery and with Monchi at the helm of the sports department, is considering strengthening the goalkeeping position due to the possible exit of the Argentine Emiliano “Dibu” Martínez, who has reportedly already bid farewell to the Villa Park fans.

One of the best goalkeepers in Spain

Remiro, who has played 49 games this season and has been regularly called up by Luis de la Fuente for the Spanish national team, is one of the names that most convinces the Birmingham team. This is not the first time Premier League teams have shown interest in him: last summer, he was closely followed by Manchester United and Chelsea.

With a contract until 2027 and a release clause of €70 million, his future will depend on the movements of the English club and the decisions of the new sports management led by Erik Bretos. Real Sociedad, which already considers key players such as Zubimendi and Aguerd lost, could face another significant departure this summer.
