Yamal Included in Spain Squad Despite Injury Concerns

Spain coach Luis de la Fuente has selected the 18-year-old winger for the tournament, though his fitness level remains uncertain. Yamal suffered a hamstring injury in April and hasn't played since, though Barcelona expects him to be available for the World Cup after following a conservative treatment plan. tbzikra.com

The injury is the latest setback for Yamal, who also missed five games earlier this season with a groin issue. Despite his tender years, the Barcelona star has shown glimpses of his potential at Euro 2024 and was crucial to another title-winning La Liga campaign before his injury.
