Spain is playing Czechia at home today for matchday 4 of the UEFA Nations League. Spain have already qualified for the UEFA Nations League quarterfinals but can secure top of Group 3A. Spain will play another away game in the UEFA Nations League after playing Croatia away in the previous matchday, which was played last month during the last international break.
For today, Spain will have a big loss in Lamine Yamal, who is not included in the starting lineup or on the bench. Yamal played in Spain’s first four UEFA Nations League games in the previous international break. Yamal played in Spain’s 2-1 away win over Croatia in the previous matchday, where he played 78 minutes. Is Spain’s Lamine Yamal Injured?
Lamine Yamal is injured and is currently recovering in Barcelona, Spain; Yamal is not with the Spain national team camp despite being called up for this November international break. Yamal is reportedly suffering from knee discomfort from the previous game for FC Barcelona against Atletico Madrid in La Liga last weekend.
Spain head coach Luis de la Fuente told Yamal to rest at home and to train at FC Barcelona facilities to continue his recovery process. Ahead of the match against Czechia today, Luis de la Fuente said, “Lamine got injured in the last match. He had an MRI in Barcelona, and they found inflammation and fluid in his knee.
He needed rest… I preferred for him to stay at home, train with his club and join us on Friday if he’s fit enough to do so.” Yamal will miss the match today against Czechia and could be available to play for Spain against England on Sunday.
