Real Sociedad hire Luis Llopis as goalkeeping coach Real Sociedad Former Real Madrid man returns to San Sebastian

The transfer activity has yet to fully get underway in the Basque Country, but Real Sociedad have already made a move to hire Luis Llopis as the club's new goalkeeping coach.

The Spaniard began his coaching career in San Sebastian back in 2003, but most recently has been part of Zinedine Zidane's staff and history making at Real Madrid.

His adventure in the Spanish capital began in the summer of 2005 when he was hired to coach in the club's youth system, and his reputation has only increased ever since.

Zidane worked closely with him when the Frenchman was in charge of Castilla and make the call to promote him to the senior staff when he took over from Rafa Benitez.

It's worth noting that during Llopis' time with the first team, Keylor Navas enjoyed one of his brightest periods with the club, breaking numerous Champions League records.
