Confirmed: Four Barcelona stars named in Spain starting lineup vs Austria | World Cup | OneFootball

With the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the Round of 32 stages, Spain will lock horns with Austria today in the USA to secure a place in the Round of 16.

With kickoff not far away, manager Luis de la Fuente has announced the starting lineup that will take the field against Ralf Rangnick’s side.

And, as many as four Barcelona players feature in the La Roja starting XI tonight against their fellow European nation.

Lamine Yamal, who has fully recovered from his hamstring injury, features from the get-go in attack for Spain.

Meanwhile, in midfield, the pair of Pedri and Dani Olmo both start, amid speculations that neither is happy with De la Fuente.

Pau Cubarsi happens to be the fourth Barcelona player in the starting XI for Spain, as he continues in defence, aiming to continue his streak of having played every minute so far at the competition.

That means Eric Garcia and Joan Garcia remain on the bench, waiting for their first minutes at the World Cup. Meanwhile, Gavi, who started the first game against Cape Verde, has not featured since, while Ferran Torres also remains benched.
