Samu, FC Porto forward, earned another cap for the Spanish national team after coming on in the 62nd minute in the 2-2 draw with Turkey. After the match, Spanish coach Luis de la Fuente spoke about the 21-year-old Dragons striker.

“He is a young player, with fantastic natural energy. It’s normal that he sometimes seems a bit rushed; he feels very excited to play for Spain. As he gains more experience and consistency, the footballing potential he shows every Sunday at his club will also be seen in the national team. We’re not in a hurry with him,” he began by saying.

“He is a player in development and with a great future. He needs to understand that the demands of the national team are extremely high, but he is prepared for that. He is going to be very important for the future of Spanish football,” he added.
