Eric García was a late withdrawal from Spain’s starting XI for its 3-2 Nations League win over England after a warm-up knee injury. Spain confirmed the injury; coach Luis de la Fuente said it appears minor, but further tests are needed and his availability is uncertain.
De la Fuente said Spain would assess whether García can recover after returning to Madrid, but only if there is absolutely no risk to him. Spain have two Nations League games against Croatia and another against Czechia remaining; the coach said they may consider bringing in another player if García is unavailable.
The report says Barcelona will hope the injury is not serious, with key La Liga and Champions League fixtures coming up in October.
