🇪🇸 Misa, Codina, Enith... Several returns in Sonia Bermúdez's squad | OneFootball

The national coach, Sonia Bermúdez, has kicked off the year 2026 with a call-up full of messages and notable names.

With an eye on the qualification for the 2027 World Cup, the Spanish team begins a decisive phase marked by the return of established figures and a definitive commitment to young talent eager to make their mark.

Among the most notable returns are goalkeeper Misa Rodríguez and defender Laia Codina. Both players regain their place in the defensive block, providing the necessary experience to face the highly demanding international commitments approaching in this international break.

Several debuts in the call-up

However, the big surprise lies in the debut of four players: Aiara Agirrezabala, Lucía Corrales, Sandra Villafañe, and Ornella Vignola. Bermúdez thus demonstrates that the door to the national team is open to those who shine in the league, refreshing all areas of the field with players of great technical potential.

In the absence of key players in the backbone of the team due to injuries, such as Aitana Bonmatí in midfield or Cata Coll in goal, Bermúdez gives the opportunity to young talents.

Two vital matches

Spain faces two vital matches in this window. The first will be against Iceland in Castellón, where a full house is expected. Afterwards, the Spanish team will travel to face a Ukraine team that, due to the geopolitical situation, will play on neutral ground, specifically in Turkey.
