Spain Coach Defends Lamine Yamal, Says His Best Days Are Ahead
Spain head coach Luis de la Fuente praised the remarkable growth of 18-year-old Lamine Yamal since his Spain debut. He highlighted Yamal’s speed, resilience and growing influence on the team. De la Fuente acknowledged the teenager’s brilliance but insisted Yamal is not yet at his peak. “He is much better than two years ago, but still not as good as he will be in another two,” he said. Concerns over player workload and injuries have come from Barcelona fans, especially after Gavi’s ACL setback and Yamal’s pubalgia flare-up. De la Fuente responded that the national staff carefully protect every player, regardless of club. “My responsibility is to field the best team to win,” he added. “Barça players face the same demands as those from Madrid or Atlético. Their presence here is great news for Spanish football.”
