The goalkeeping position does not give the goalkeeper options to play at different positions, display his strength and speed or dribbling abilities so it's a mono position.
For his move to Racing Santander I think it's a right choice as far as he is going to have regular start up.
I believe the father gave him full support to stand between the posts instead of ruling the midfield right from that teenage age, so he is a great goalkeeper and he will be on the headlines soon.
