The smoke of the 2026 World Cup has begun to permeate. This Friday, Spanish national team coach Luis de La Fuente will announce the new roster and officially start the qualifying journey to the US, Canada and Mexico World Cup.

Drafuente has always been known for his stubbornness, and he tends to trust the core team he has built. However, with the injuries of some players at the beginning of the season and the strong rise of some new players, this stubborn old coach may have to make some changes.

Among them, two Garcia from Barcelona - goalkeeper Juan Garcia and defender Eric Garcia, are paying close attention to the call. Will they become a surprise in the new cycle of the Bullfighter Legion?

Goalkeeper

Barcelona goalkeeper Juan Garcia undoubtedly has the strength to be selected for the national team, and he himself also longs for the recognition of Dela Fuente.

However, reality is cruel. In this position, De La Fuente has an extremely stable and harmonious trio: the main player is Unai Simon of Athletic Bilbao, David Raya, who performed stably in Arsenal, and the third goal is Remiro, who is willing to contribute and good at adjusting the atmosphere in the locker room.

Considering the head coach's emphasis on the team atmosphere and his love for his old team, it is extremely difficult for Juan Garcia to break this solid combination.

Right back

Compared with the goalkeeper position, Eric Garcia seems to have truly had a glimmer of hope in the right back position.

The opportunity stems from the rest of the main force Kavajal. Delafuente hinted that in order for the meritorious veteran to welcome the World Cup in the best form, he will not be called up early in the qualifiers. The other two candidates, Pedro Polo and Mingeza, performed poorly in previous European League matches.

At this time, Eric Garcia, who performed well in Barcelona, ​​became the best choice. His versatile attributes are valued by pragmatic coaches like Delafuent. This time, perhaps his best chance to return to the national team.

The midfield and frontcourt

The suspense is relatively small in the construction of the midfield and frontcourt.

Core Leader: Pedri will undoubtedly shoulder the heavy responsibility of the midfield commander.

Sharp Knife: Dani Ormo is the coach's favorite, and Lamin Yamal's selection is even more popular.

Center position: Morata will shoulder the heavy responsibility of scoring with Ferran Torres.

The only uncertainty is that Rodri, the midfielder, has just recovered from injury and may get a rotation rest. By then, Subimedi will be the first choice for the starter.

Stubborn or change? This is the choice that Dela Fuente must make.

Although the overall framework of the big list has been determined, in some positions, we still have reason to expect the emergence of some new faces. Especially for Barcelona’s two Garcia, whether they can open the door to the national team will be the biggest highlight of this list.

This Friday, let's wait for the answer to be revealed.
