The start of the highway to the 2024 Euro Cup for Spain can also be the start line of Luis de la Fuente (Haro, 1961) as the brand new captain of the purple ship. The nationwide staff receives Norway this Saturday in Malaga in what's going to imply the debut of the coach from La Rioja on the senior bench. A path affected by success has accompanied him since in 2013 he grew to become a part of the teaching workers of the decrease classes of the Spanish Federation, with continental titles and Olympic medals already in his trophy cupboard. A decade later the nice alternative has come for him, that of directing the senior staff, and assuming the difficult reduction of Luis Enrique's stage, who left his place via the again door after a turbulent goodbye on the World Cup in Qatar. "It's not one thing that generates particular stress for me, I take every thing calmly, as I've at all times finished," he confessed yesterday within the bowels of La Rosaleda.

And the match towards Norway, his debut, ought to start to resolve them, discovering a few of his playing cards about who's going to point out off stripes on this new stage. The coach didn't need to reveal something about his resolution, though he assured that it was fairly clear: "I would like the gamers to take care of the strain till the tip."
Kepa, in aim, and Ceballos, because the mind in midfield, seem to be protected bets to make the most of a brand new alternative with the nationwide staff. However the one who takes the ground is Luis de la Fuente. And the primary listener of him is Norway. Spain is in your fingers.
