In a recent positive development for fans, Spain’s coach Luis Enrique has decided to bring Jordi Alba back into the national team. Spain is gearing up for matches against Bosnia, Croatia, and Herzegovina. Alba had previously been left out of the team in September, a decision that had faced criticism.
Back then, Enrique had announced that Alba would not be included in the team for the fixtures in September and October against England, Wales, and Croatia. However, in a recent statement, Luis Enrique mentioned that despite Alba’s peak performance, he did not feel pressured to recall him for the November matches.
Additionally, Enrique clarified that his decisions are not influenced by public opinion and that any choices made are solely for the benefit of the national team, emphasizing that there are no personal issues with Alba. Recent discussions between the player and the coach have paved the way for Alba’s return, indicating a probable comeback for the highly-regarded left back in Spanish football.
Spain’s vulnerabilities exposed in their match against England have prompted these adjustments. Luis Enrique aims to shake things up and evaluate the performances of additional players. Concerns over a weak defense exhibited during the England game have prompted these changes to bolster the team’s defensive capabilities.
