Context

Josep Martínez, 28 years old, is currently in his best form as Inter de Milán's goalkeeper in Serie A. His ascension to the Spanish national team has given him new hope and opportunities, especially at times when the goal posts seem to be reserved for other players.

Why it matters

Josep Martínez's performance in Serie A not only shows his ability as Inter de Milán's main goalkeeper, but also his potential to be part of the Spanish national team. Despite stiff competition from notable goalkeepers such as Unai Simón and David Raya, his call-up to the national team is a testament to his hard work and dedication to his game.

Key Points

• Josep Martínez proved Luis de la Fuente in a.
• Inter de Milán's Valencian goalkeeper, Josep Martínez, earned a call-up to the national team after a strong start in Serie A and immediately showed class with a rare save against Malen.
• Josep Martínez le da la razón a Luis de la Fuente with an anthological parade.

Josep Martínez Riera, 28 years old, is currently in one of the best phases of his career. Since Sommer's departure last summer, Martínez has become Inter de Milán's main goalkeeper and has gradually proven worthy of the club's trust. He generally shows solid performance levels in most games. There was only one fatal error recorded against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu, but in other matches he responded with assurance and consistency — enough to get him noticed by the Spanish national team. The call from coach Luis de la Fuente was not expected by many because the positions in the goal of Spain are considered almost immortal: Unai Simón, David Raya and Joan García. When Joan García was injured, the door opened for another option and it went to Martínez. According to reports, he competed with Álvaro Valles' good start, but in the end it was the Valenciano who got the unique chance — leaving Valles feeling somewhat disappointed. Not long from his banquet with the national team: 24 hours after finding his name on the list, Martínez made one of the parades of the season. There was a chance from Malen — after an opponent's player turned, the ball hit but Martínez stopped with cool confidence. His reception and thwarting of that force of the rest showed determination and reflexes rare for a new selection call. The scene made it clear why he was chosen: not only because of the regular performance for Inter de Milán, but because he has the nature of a goalkeeper who can stand up in the most difficult moments. For Spain, it provides added depth in the position as the squad adjusts due to injuries. Although he still has little experience in the national team compared to predecessors Simón and Raya, Martínez's quick adaptation and critical parade against Malen will help to increase the confidence of the coaching staff. His progress in the upcoming selections will remain interesting; it would be good to keep an eye on his performance in Serie A and at Inter as it could open up more opportunities at the international level. In other words, the call of Luis de la Fuente has already paid off with short-term work — and that parade proves that the choice was not random.

What's next

Josep Martínez is expected to continue to be a key part of Inter de Milán as his team competes in Serie A. His recent success with the national team could give him more confidence and a chance to show his skills in the next matches, especially if he can continue to provide important saves in the next few games.
