Luis de la Fuente, coach of the Spanish national team, explained that they have decided that Lamine Yamal should not travel to Madrid after receiving the medical reports from Barcelona to confirm the winger's absence and wished him ‘a speedy recovery’.
"Barcelona, as all clubs do, have sent us the report with the relevant tests and we thought it appropriate for him not to travel, as it meant going through this procedure again here, which was no longer necessary," said De la Fuente.
"I wish him a speedy recovery," said the national coach. Yamal is out with a grade one injury to the syndesmosis of his right ankle and will be sidelined for two to three weeks, according to the Azulgrana club.
The Riojan coach has called up Bryan Gil (Girona) to replace him in the squad for the Nations League matches against Denmark at the Parken in Copenhagen and against Switzerland at the Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez stadium in Santa Cruz de Tenerife.
De la Fuente is bothered by ‘the misfortunes of injuries’. "If there had been matches of other characteristics there would also have been casualties. It coincides with these times and there is nothing else to think about, that the injured recover quickly and that we can count on both their clubs and the national team with them," he told reporters.
