This may not go down well with Hansi Flick
Spain boss Luis de la Fuente has named his latest squad for World Cup qualifiers against Georgia and Bulgaria and named Lamine Yamal on his roster.
There’s been tension between club and country after Yamal returned from the latest international break with an injury and missed four games for Barcelona.
Hansi Flick accused Spain of not looking after their players properly, and there had been speculation the club may try to prevent Yamal from being called up for the latest fixtures.
However, Yamal is in the squad – along with Barcelona team-mates Pedri, Ferran Torres, Pau Cubarsi and Dani Olmo – and looks set to feature in the upcoming games.
Here’s the squad for the two matches:
Goalkeepers: Unai Simon, David Raya, Alex Remiro
Defenders: Alejandro Grimaldo, Marc Cucurella, Pau Cubarsí, Dani Vivian, Robin Le Normand, Marcos Llorente, Pedro Porro, Dean Huijsen.
Midfielders: Rodrigo, Dani Olmo, Mikel Merino, Martin Zubimendi, Aleix Garcia, Pedri, Alex Baena and Pablo Barrios.
Forwards: Mikel Oyarzabal, Ferran Torres, Yeremy Pino, Lamine Yamal, Samu, Jorge de Frutos and Jesús Rodríguez.
Spain’s first game is against Georgia on October 11th in Alicante, with the second match due to take place three days later in Valladolid.
