VIDEO SHOWS: SOUNDBITES FROM SPAIN COACH LUIS DE LA FUENTE COMPLETE STORY TO FOLLOW SHOWS: VALLADOLID, SPAIN (OCTOBER 13, 2025) (RFEF – Must not obscure logo. No resales. No monetisation) TO FOLLOW STORY: Spain are hoping to continue their dominant start to World Cup qualifying when they host Bulgaria in Valladolid's Jose Zorrilla Stadium on Tuesday (October 14). Luis de la Fuente's side have struggled with injuries of late with Lamine Yamal, Nico Williams and 2024 Ballon d'Or winner Rodri all sidelined. Barcelona forward Ferran Torres was then forced to pull out of the national team squad due to muscle soreness in his left hamstring after playing the full 90 minutes of Spain's 2-0 win over Georgia on Saturday. Despite the setbacks, Spain are top of Group E with nine points, three ahead of Turkey while Georgia remain third on three. Bulgaria sit rock bottom having suffered three consecutive defeats to start the campaign. (Production: Conal Quinn)
