The Spain national football team faces a new setback with the injury of Víctor Muñoz, the 22-year-old winger who recently joined Liverpool. The additional muscle injury he suffered during Thursday's training session in Chattanooga definitively rules him out of the crucial match against Saudi Arabia. Luis de la Fuente, the coach, had decided to include him in the final list despite his physical problems, but this untimely setback forces him to halt his preparation. Víctor Muñoz had already been struggling with physical problems since late April, when he suffered a soleus injury in his left leg with Osasuna. And now, the young winger must once again distance himself from the playing fields after rejoining the team's group training last week. The Federation's medical services have not set a return date, but rather assure that his availability will be determined by the evolution of his symptoms. Víctor Muñoz himself is desperate about this physical setback, which is frankly desperate. The new Liverpool signing had arrived at the World Cup in the United States, Canada, and Mexico with the illusion of taking advantage of a unique opportunity in his short career as a player. And it's that the Catalan footballer had an exceptional previous campaign with Osasuna, in which he played 36 matches, scored 7 goals, and distributed 5 assists, becoming one of the revelations of the Spanish league. So, the Spain national football team must look for alternatives for the match against Saudi Arabia, which will be played this Sunday at 18:00 hours in Atlanta. Víctor Muñoz's injury is a blow to the team, which has players like Luis de la Fuente and other talents. But the coach must find a way to overcome this obstacle and lead the team to victory. The Spain national football team has a long road ahead in the 2026 World Cup, and Víctor Muñoz's injury is just a setback along the way. The team must move forward and find a way to overcome this obstacle. The date of the match against Saudi Arabia is approaching, and the Spain national football team must be ready to face the challenge. The team's preparation is crucial, and Luis de la Fuente must make the right decisions to ensure the team's success.
