Pitarch is a dual international, eligible to play for Morocco and Spain. The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has assured him that he has a pathway to play for La Roja.
Pitarch made his senior debut in a preseason match against FC Tirol last week. He expressed his excitement about playing for the club, saying, "It's the dream every kid has when they're young, and with the best club in the world."
He also had the opportunity to meet Xabi Alonso, a former top player, and was honored to have him as a role model. Pitarch and his teammates watched Alonso on TV as children, and now they are working together.
