Spain Faces Potential Loss of Two Key Players Before World Cup Playoffs
The Spanish media is reporting concerns within the national team following today’s victory over Cape Verde. Luis de la Fuente’s squad could potentially lose two players ahead of the World Cup 2026 playoff stage.
Spain’s winger Yeremi Pino suffered a serious injury, with a suspected clavicle fracture resulting from a bad fall. The medical staff fear that the player might be sidelined for an extended period.
There are also worries about the condition of winger Nico Williams. Late in the match, he sustained a new muscle injury in the groin area and left the stadium in Guadalajara visibly limping.
It is worth recalling that in the Round of 16 of the 2026 World Cup, Spain will face either Austria or Algeria.
