Spain coach Luis Enrique has surprised everyone by naming a young squad to play against Germany and Ukraine in September. It seems Enrique has embarked on a new-era with Spain’s younger generations.
Barcelona’s youth sensation, Ansu Fati has been named in the Spain squad for the first time at just 17 years of age. Manchester City duo of Ferran Torres and Eric Garcia has also been called to the squad.
