CD Castellón monitor international call-ups as leaders prepare for Tenerife and fixtures in FIFA window | OneFootball

CD Castellón begin a week of off-field focus, preparing to defend top spot against CD Tenerife on Saturday at 18.30 at SkyFi Castalia while monitoring international call-ups that could strip options from Pablo Hernández.

According to El Periódico Mediterráneo, the late September international break will not halt LaLiga Hypermotion, so Castellón must play two matches in the FIFA window, at Leganés in Butarque on Monday 28 September and against Ceuta at SkyFi Castalia on Sunday four October.

The club await squad lists to see who might depart temporarily. Attention centres on Ousmane Camara, Matías Orozco and Amir Saipi, though other citations, including age-group selections, cannot be ruled out.

Camara’s case is pressing. The forward has senior Guinea experience and has been included in previous international windows, and his absence would be a significant setback given his status as a leading attacking reference.

Orozco’s situation is newer. The 18-year-old Colombian midfielder has only just arrived in Spain, on loan from Brighton after Deportivo Cali, and is a youth international. His eye-catching start has put him among candidates for a senior call, with Colombia to face Mexico on 26 September and Paraguay on two October, so a late summons could directly impact Castellón.

Saipi, a Swiss-Kosovar goalkeeper signed from Lugano until 2030, already has full caps for Kosovo. They are scheduled to face Ireland on 24 September and Austria in Vienna on 27 September. A call would remove another option, although Belgian Romain Matthys has started the league with outstanding form.
