Set to challenge Rico for a place in Spain's summer World Cup squad is Athletic Bilbao's Kepa Arrizabalaga, who simply has to be a top-class goalkeeper. His name is Kepa, for goodness sake.

If that's not enough to convince you, then consider this: he has already won his first international cap at the age of 23 - that's five years younger than Victor Valdes was when he got his.

Owing to his lightning-quick reflexes and incredible maturity between the goal-posts, Arrizabalaga was - according to Spanish site Marca - courted by Real Madrid earlier this year before signing a new deal to remain in Bilbao.

While current Galacticos 'keeper Keylor Navas is far from finished, something tells us they might be going back in for his services in the near-future - especially if Manchester United hold firm on Spanish number one David De Gea.
