Spain announce squad for November international break

Spain will face Cyprus and Georgia

Four Barcelona players have been invited into Spain's squad by manager Luis de la Fuente for their matches against Cyprus and Georgia in November.

Because of a prior agreement, there isn't Pedri and Alejandro Balde are left out. Along with Inigo Martinez, Lamine Yamal, Ferran Torres, and Gavi do receive the approval.

Given that Spain is currently eligible for Euro 2024, De la Fuente will have the opportunity to try some new things with his squad in these two matches.

Fermin Lopez, who was expected to be called up, is back with the Under-21 team and Pablo Torre will be joining him.

Even with the departure of Xavi, Iniesta, and co., the possession-based mentality that produced victories at the World Cup 2010, Euro 2008, and 2012 endures. 12 years later, from South Africa.

A flattering-to-deceive Spain met a similar tragedy in Russia in 2018 and Euro 2020 and 2022 after being eliminated from big championships on penalties in 1986, 1996, and 2002. 'Not again?' La Roja supporters must be wondering.
