Athletic Bilbao confirm return of goalkeeper

Athletic Bilbao confirmed that goalkeeper Alex Remiro, who was on loan to Spanish football league rivals Levante, will return and train with his teammates.

The Spanish goalkeeper will return to Athletic to fill the gap left by injured goalie Kepa Arrizabalaga, who sustained an injury this month and is still recovering, reports Efe.

Remiro joined Levante on loan last summer, where he only appeared in four games. Athletic Bilbao are currently in seventh position of La Liga with 32 points.
