Eric Garcia received an unexpected call-up to Luis de la Fuente’s final Spain World Cup list after a year of hard work and consistency. He said he was not 100% sure and learned of the selection when the video was released, with no prior notice. He described seeing the news while working with the fitness coach, hugging him, and then speaking with his parents. He noted Spain’s strong player base, praised Barcelona’s contribution, and said the week felt unusually slow. He also said captaincy comes naturally from character, having captained at youth level.
""I wasn't expecting it. Obviously, I had hope, but I wasn't 100% sure. I found out when the video was released; nobody calls you beforehand." "I was working with the fitness coach when I saw it. I gave him a big hug and then spoke with my parents," he added, reliving the moment."
