Yamal is taking his recovery for the World Cup very seriously and is completely focused on being at 100% in the event beginning next month. Despite the team winning La Liga and officially concluding the season on Saturday night, the winger was the only player who arrived at the club facilities on Sunday to train and further his recovery. The player is working alongside physiotherapist Pablo Merino to ensure that his body stays prepared for the high-stakes event arriving, and will continue working with Fernando Galan once he joins the national team.

"It's possible. Our plan is to call up 26 players, and then if we need a specific type of player, they'll join us. But the roster will consist of 26 players."

Fermín López experienced football's harshest side last Sunday during the La Liga game between FC Barcelona and Real Betis. During the game, the midfielder suffered a blow to his foot and had to be withdrawn at half-time. Tests yesterday confirmed that the academy graduate suffered a fracture of the fifth metatarsal in his right foot and had to undergo surgery. With a recovery timeline of close to two months, Fermin's World Cup hopes were dashed.

The stopper arrived on English soil as a 15-year-old in June 2015 to join Brighton & Hove Albion, with loan spells at Forest Green Rovers and Rochdale soon following. He used this time in the EFL effectively, with his Premier League debut following in November 2020 and quickly usurping incumbent Matt Ryan as the Seagulls No.1.

Carvajal is a very important figure in our dressing room, de la Fuente said on Wednesday. I actually spoke with him yesterday, so I'm aware of what's going on. He doesn't have a specific injury, nothing serious, but he needs time to get back to his usual level. We'll see in the remaining matches whether he truly gets the opportunity and delivers the performances.

Mikel Oyarzabal had scored six times in qualifying for the finals in the United States, Mexico and Canada, and he continued where he left off with a ruthless double on Friday.

I think my best save is the derby at Espanyol. That's good. Not only technically, but also because of the moment of the game in which it was and what it meant to be able to continue with a draw.

Yamal didn't take part in Tuesday's training session with the team. Instead he enjoyed a little session with Aymeric Laporte and Marcos Llorente.

In a moment that he was doing very well, he got injured. I spoke with him and told him, 'continue on your path, do not listen to what the media is saying.' Of the ten best goalkeepers in the world, six are Spanish, meaning some great ones would miss out.

It will be very difficult to choose the goalkeeper of the Spanish national team for the World Cup. The one who does not go -Joan Garcia- is undoubtedly the best. The one who is on the bench - David Raya - is fantastic and the starter is the one who generates the most doubts right now. The starter generates doubts in his club, and in the national team, it seems that he does not.
