A blow to the Spanish national team… Lamine Yamal misses the match against Czechia due to injury
The Spanish national team received a blow before their upcoming match against the Czech Republic, after it was confirmed that Barcelona star Lamine Yamal will miss the game scheduled for Thursday, November 12, as part of the UEFA Nations League competitions, due to suffering from pain in his right knee.
Yamal's suffering came after his participation in the match between Barcelona and Atlético Madrid, which ended with the Catalan team winning 2-1. The player felt pain in his knee after being hit during the game, prompting the medical staff to subject him to the necessary examinations.
After assessing his condition, it was decided that the player would stay in Barcelona to continue his treatment and recovery program, and his joining the Spanish national team camp would be delayed. This decision was made in coordination between the club and the Royal Spanish Football Federation, with continuous communication between the medical teams to follow up on his condition.
Despite his absence from the Czech Republic match in the capital, Prague, the technical staff of the Spanish national team hopes to regain Yamal's services in the coming days, in preparation for the anticipated confrontation against England on November 15 at the Metropolitano Stadium. Expectations indicate the possibility of him joining the camp on Friday, depending on his response to treatment.
In the same context, the Spanish national team will miss the services of Mikel Oyarzabal against the Czech Republic due to suffering from flu symptoms. He will continue his recovery period in the city of San Sebastián before joining his teammates later. His participation against England remains uncertain, as he awaits the arrival of his child during this period.
The Spanish Federation confirmed that the medical staff is monitoring the players' condition in continuous coordination with the clubs, in preparation for determining their joining the camp.
