Real Sociedad coach Asier Garitano has decided to make a change at the goalkeeping position, starting Miguel Angel Moya ahead of Geronimo Rulli in Saturday's LaLiga Santander match against Valencia.
The Argentine shot-stopper had made a number of mistakes in recent weeks, especially against Barcelona and Rayo Vallecano, which provoked Garitano into taking action.
Rulli had already been benched in favour of Moya towards the end of last season, but the arrival of a new coach in the summer had offered him a fresh opportunity.
Six weeks into the season, though, he has been replaced.
Despite his difficult September, Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni has called up Rulli for the upcoming international fixtures.
