Spain writer Luis de la Fuente took over as Spain manager in December after former boss Luis Enrique. De la Fuente caused controversy when he voted for Julian Alvarez as The Best FIFA men’s player of 2022, instead of eventual winner Lionel Messi or France and PSG star Kylian Mbappe. This raised questions about whether de la Fuente could be trusted to choose the best players when it came to selecting a Spain squad. However, during a news conference at Las Rozas, he named his first Spain squad, and the focus shifted from his controversial vote. Spain’s first games in the Euro 2024 qualifying games are against Norway on March 25 and Scotland on March 28.
