Spain: Yamal and Boro ready for World Cup final against Argentina

Lamine Yamal, star of the Spanish national team, caused concern inside the "La Roja" camp before facing Argentina in the 2026 World Cup final, after appearing in training with a bandage on his left thigh.

The Spanish national team's training session in New Jersey, following the win over France in the semi-final, saw Yamal undergo individual training away from the group, accompanied by full-back Pedro Boro, which raised questions about his readiness for the final match.

The Spanish Football Federation sought to reassure fans, confirming that the individual training program is part of a plan for physical load management and recovery, and is not related to any serious injury.

The Spanish Federation clarified that the duo Lamine Yamal and Pedro Boro are expected to be ready to participate in the final match against Argentina.

Yamal had a physically demanding match against France in the semi-final, and engaged in many duels with Lucas Digne and Theo Hernandez, which caused him some bruises and muscle fatigue, which is normal after a match of such intensity.

The Spanish national team aspires to win the World Cup for the second time in its history, while the technical staff led by Luis de la Fuente relies on Lamine Yamal's readiness to lead the attack of "La Roja" in the most important matches of the tournament.
