Spain's national team, led by coach Luis de la Fuente, has suffered a double blow ahead of their match against the Czech Republic, with the absence of duo Lamine Yamal and Mikel Oyarzabal confirmed for the game scheduled to take place on Thursday in the capital Prague, in the UEFA Nations League.
Lamine Yamal felt pain in his right knee after Barcelona's match against Atlético Madrid, while Mikel Oyarzabal is still in the final stages of recovering from a bout of influenza. The coaching staff decided to exclude both players from the national team's trip to the Czech Republic.
The Spanish Football Federation, in an official statement, confirmed that the players will be available to participate against England at the Metropolitano Stadium, indicating that no new players would be called up, especially since De la Fuente included 27 players in the squad in anticipation of such circumstances, before ultimately deciding to call up Víctor Muñoz.
The Spanish coach is set to rely on Ferran Torres in the striker position against the Czech Republic, after the player had to leave the national team camp during the previous break due to minor pain in his left ankle.
