Just two months after his debut with FC Barcelona, prodigy Pau Cubarsi (17) was called up by coach Luis de la Fuente for La Roja’s next matches.
It was more or less expected, but it’s still a sensation. At 17 years old and not even two months old, Pau Cubarsi was called up by Luis de la Fuente, the Spanish coach.
With 9 La Liga matches on the clock, and a remarkable performance for his debut in the Champions League (he was elected man of the match against Naples), the FC Barcelona defender has earned his place within La Roja, in a sector of game where we will find two Frenchmen, Aymeric Laporte (Al-Nassr) and Robin Le Normand (Real Sociedad), and another newcomer, Dani Vivian (Athletic Bilbao, 24 years old).
For the other lessons on this list, we note the returns of Pedro Porro (Tottenham) and Pablo Sarabia (Wolverhampton), and the Villarreal duo, Alex Baena and Gerard Moreno. The main absentees are the injured Gavi and Pedri, but the La Roja midfielder still looks good, notably with Parisian Fabian Ruiz.
