Defensive star passed fit as Spain face last minute Euro 2024 final selection call

Spain boss Luis de la Fuente is still making his mind up on one selection call for the Euro 2024 final.

La Roja face England in Berlin on the back of six wins from six games so far in the competition.

De la Fuente has generally stuck with a majority of an unchanged starting team with minor alterations.

The final group game allowed him to rotate, with last 16 qualification assured, ahead of a 1-0 win over Albania.

De la Fuente will stick with the same six midfielders and forwards who started the semi final victory over France.

Dani Carvajal returns from suspension at right back with Jesus Navas ready to play through the pain barrier as needed.

However, there is still a call to make at centre back, with Robin Le Normand also back from a ban.

Aymeric Laporte is ready to start, having started five in a row, and veteran campaigner Nacho Fernandez has been passed fit, despite missing Spain’s final training session.

De la Fuente confirmed the 34-year-old is available, but Le Normand is favourite to start, with Nacho’s experience likely to be used if Spain are leading late on.
