Yamal Fit as Full-Strength Spain Prepare to Test Cape Verde’s World Cup Debut

Cape Verde’s first World Cup campaign faces a stiff challenge as Spain confirm the fitness of stars Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams. Both wide attackers missed late club action with hamstring issues but are now fully recovered ahead of the opener. Head coach Luis de la Fuente opted for careful conditioning in the United States rather than rushing the trio into a friendly. Medical advice guided their training programs, and all three attackers are set to start Spain’s Group H match on June 15 in Atlanta. Facing the reigning European champions on debut is a daunting task for the African side. Spain will follow up with games against Saudi Arabia and Uruguay, while Cape Verde hope to mount a shock run in their historic first tournament.
