Spain boss Luis de la Fuente gives his backing to Barcelona’s Ansu Fati

New Spain boss Luis de la Fuente has been full of praise for Barcelona midfielders Pedri and Gavi and has also given his full backing to Ansu Fati.

De la Fuente has replaced Luis Enrique at the helm, following World Cup 2022, and is currently preparing for Nations League games against Norway and Scotland in March.

The new Spain boss has told Mundo Deportivo that it’s a “luxury” to coach players such as Pedri and Gavi who are already key players for club and country.

De la Fuente is also backing Fati to come good, with the striker currently finding it difficult to make much of an impression at Barcelona.
