Luis Enrique is the latest casualty, just hours before Spain’s League of Nations debut against Portugal at Benito Villamarin. Thiago Alcantara won’t be able participate in any of the matches of La Roja during this unusual international window in June. This is due to the earthquake in the calendar that was caused by the World Cup Qatar. It’s the first time in history that the dates are not summer.

After being forced to play in the Champions League final against Real Madrid in Paris, Liverpool’s midfielder was left with a physical injury. He has now recovered from his discomfort. He will remain focused on the Spanish team and Luis Enrique won’t allow him to substitute for him until the match against Portugal.
