Luis Enrique has named the 25-man squad he’s going to use for La Roja’s upcoming Nations League commitments.
Spain take on Portugal on June second at the Benito Villamarin in Seville before locking horns with the Czech Republic in Prague three days later. They then take on Switzerland in Geneva before entertaining the Czech Republic down in Malaga to finish it off.
Spain will no doubt take this period seriously. The Qatar World Cup is only around the corner and La Roja have every chance of going to the Middle East and winning the competition outright.
They made it to the semi-final of Euro 2020 only to lose to eventual winners Italy before making it to the final of the Nations League only to lose to reigning world champions France.
Before the Spanish squad get together, of course, there’s the small matter of the Champions League final between Real Madrid and Liverpool. Luis Enrique was asked who he thinks will win.
“No answer I give is going to please everyone and I like to please everyone,” he replied as carried by Marca.
“But since I like to be fair, if anyone deserves to win this Champions League it’s Real Madrid.”
