Spain Makes Big Decision to Secure Luis de la Fuente's Future
Following Spain's 2026 World Cup victory, the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) is prioritizing a contract extension for head coach Luis de la Fuente. His current deal runs until Euro 2028, but the federation aims to extend it by two additional years, through the 2030 World Cup, which Spain will co-host. RFEF president Rafael Louzán considers De la Fuente the ideal leader for the national team's future. The coach, who previously led Spain to the 2024 European Championship title, transformed the team by blending technical mastery with young talents like Lamine Yamal. Despite earlier delays in negotiations due to his atypical career path and salary concerns, the World Cup triumph has solidified his status, prompting the federation to act quickly to secure his long-term commitment.
