Dani Olmo will not be available to face Switzerland in tonight’s match against the Spanish national team at the Geneva stadium, on a pitch that is a potato field. The Barcelona player suffered a heavy blow in the match against Serbia from which he has not been able to recover in time, so De la Fuente will not be able to count on him for the second match of the Nations League, in which La Roja will seek its first victory.
In any case, Olmo’s condition is not alarming given that he has not affected any ligaments or the meniscus of his injured knee. Olmo, who underwent medical tests in Geneva, will miss the match against Switzerland after missing the last training session with the national team due to the severe pain in his knee. It is expected that he will have no problems playing in the next LaLiga match, in which Barça faces Girona (Sunday at 16:15), although that will be a decision by Barça’s doctors.
Olmo’s place in the Spanish team will be taken by Valencia’s Pepelu, who also inherits his number ’10’. The list of De la Fuente’s players is as follows:
