La Roja will be back in action this month.
For the upcoming November UEFA Nations League matches against Czechia and England, 21-year-old Como centre-back Jacobo Ramon has received his first-ever call-up to the senior Spain national team group.
In Luis de la Fuenteâs most recent Spain national team roster, Ramon is the only player from Serie A. The team will play Czechia on Thursday, November 12, and England on Sunday, November 15, in the Nations League.
Real Madrid players Marc Cucurella and Dean Huijsen are part of La Rojaâs roster for the next games. After a strong start to the new club season under manager Jose Mourinhoâs guidance, Huijsen has returned to the Spain squad after missing the World Cup.
Cucurella and Huijsen will face their Real Madrid colleagues Jude Bellingham and Trent Alexander-Arnold in Spainâs second game against England.
Additionally, the group that will play the two sides in the Nations League includes up to five Barcelona players.
The Blaugrana players picked up by De la Fuente include goalkeeper Joan Garcia, defender Pau Cubarsi, midfielders Pedri and Fermin Lopez, and star attacker Lamine Yamal.
Rodri, the captain of Spain and a staple in Barcelonaâs midfield, will be out for over a month due to an injury sustained during Barcaâs most recent match against Aston Villa.
