Fabián Ruiz and Yeremy Pino miss Spain qualifiers through injury | OneFootball

The Spanish midfielder Fabián Ruiz, from Paris Saint-Germain, and Crystal Palace’s new forward Yeremy Pino have left the Spanish national team’s training camp due to physical problems, the Spanish Football Federation (FEF) announced this Monday.

The two players join Pablo Páez Gaviria, known as ‘Gavi’, from Barcelona, who is currently sidelined due to a right knee injury and will therefore miss the first two matches of the European Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup, against Bulgaria on Thursday and Turkey on Sunday.

The doctors of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) conducted tests on Fabián Ruiz on Monday morning, which confirmed these physical discomforts, and as a result, decided that the player will return to his club to continue his recovery.

In this way, coach Luis de la Fuente will not be able to count on one of his most important players in Spain’s tactical setup.

The coach will also be unable to field Pino, who has become the third withdrawal from his list, due to discomfort in his ankle.

To replace Gavi, De la Fuente called up Aleix García and, late Monday afternoon, was forced to summon Rayo Vallecano striker Jorge de Frutos after learning that Pino was also leaving the training camp in Las Rozas, where the Spanish federation’s sports city is located.
