Spain coach Luis de la Fuente has confirmed that Lamine Yamal, Victor Munoz and Yeremy Pino were all fit and available for Thursday's FIFA World Cup last-32 clash against Austria, giving his side a welcome lift ahead of the knockout stages.
Lamine Yamal has thrown his support behind Barcelona's pursuit of Atletico Madrid striker Julian Alvarez, admitting he would "love" to see the Argentina international join the Catalan giants.
Spain answered any doubts surrounding their World Cup credentials with an emphatic 4-0 victory over Saudi Arabia on Sunday, as Lamine Yamal and Mikel Oyarzabal starred to move La Roja to the brink of the knockout stages.
Lamine Yamal is in line to feature from the bench as Spain begin their 2026 FIFA World Cup campaign against debutants Cape Verde, with manager Luis de la Fuente confirming the winger is fit but not yet ready to start.
Spain's plans for Lamine Yamal remain firmly cautious, with the teenage Barcelona winger still being carefully managed ahead of a packed international schedule and the 2026 FIFA World Cup build-up.
Barcelona teenager Lamine Yamal has been named La Liga's Player of the Season after playing a leading role in the club's successful defence of the Spanish title.
