Spain's squad reshuffle for England clash

Spain's national team manager, Luis de la Fuente, is contemplating tactical adjustments for Saturday's UEFA Nations League fixture against England. Pedro Porro's absence due to injury opens a door for Eric Garcia in the defensive lineup. Additionally, Pedri and Nico Williams might be introduced into the starting XI, potentially at the expense of Fabian Ruiz and Alex Baena.

Joan Garcia is unavailable because of an injury, and Marcos Llorente has retired from international football. Gavi and Borja Iglesias were notably excluded from the squad selection. However, the squad does feature two uncapped talents, Ivan Fresneda and Roberto Fernandez, both aspiring to make their mark at Wembley.

Nico Williams has maintained good fitness this season and is a strong candidate to play on the left wing. Upfront, De la Fuente faces a significant decision regarding the centre-forward position. Mikel Oyarzabal is being considered to lead the line over Ferran Torres, despite Torres's impressive scoring record of seven goals in six matches for Paris Saint-Germain this 2026-27 season.
