Spain coach Luis de la Fuente has announced his squad for the FIFA World Cup 2026™.
The UEFA EURO 2024-winning tactician has an abundance of riches at his disposal, with Barcelona superstar Lamine Yamal leading the way. Sixteen players who helped La Roja secure continental honours two years ago are in the squad for the global finals. In addition to Yamal, De la Fuente will be relying on other key figures such as Mikel Oyarzabal, Rodri, Pedri and Marc Cucurella.
Among the notable inclusions are Marc Pubill and Eric Garcia. Atletico Madrid defender Pubill has yet to debut with the senior side, while Garcia's renaissance at Barcelona earned the defender his first call-up since Qatar 2022. In goal, Joan Garcia will join Unai Simon and David Raya behind a back-line that has only three of the eight defenders who helped conquer Europe in 2024: Cucurella, Alejandro Grimaldo and Aymeric Laporte.
