Lamine Yamal Returns to the Spanish National Team After Recovering from Injury<\/h2>\n\nBarcelona’s young forward, Lamine Yamal, has been called up for the Spanish national team after overcoming an injury sustained during his international commitment last month. The news comes after the controversy generated by his physical condition and the criticism from Barcelona’s coach, Hansi Flick.\n\nYamal, 18 years old, suffered an abductor injury while playing with the national team in September, which caused the Barcelona coach’s annoyance. The player returned to action last weekend, participating as a substitute in the victory against Real Sociedad and playing 90 minutes in the defeat against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.\n\nThe Spanish coach, Luis de la Fuente, has included Yamal in the list for the upcoming World Cup qualifying matches against Georgia on October 11 and Bulgaria on October 14.\n\nIn contrast, \u00c1lvaro Morata, captain in previous call-ups, has been surprisingly excluded by De la Fuente.\n\nThe forward, who turns 33 this month, is not injured. He has played seven games with Como this season, where he is on loan from AC Milan, but has not yet scored.\n\nNico Williams, Dani Carvajal, Gavi, and Ferm\u00edn L\u00f3pez are also absent due to injury.\n\nMarcos Llorente, Pablo Barrios, \u00c1lex Baena, Yeremy Pino and Samu Aghehowa have been called up to take their places.\n\n\n
\"Lamine<\/figure>\n\n\nBefore joining the selection, Yamal has a match with his club against Sevilla in LaLiga on Sunday. Bar\u00e7a will be attentive to Yamal’s minutes with Spain, after Flick accused La Roja of “not taking care” of their young players last month.\n\nThe German coach stated that Yamal was unable to train due to a minor discomfort, but Spain administered him painkillers, allowing him to play against Bulgaria and Turkey.\n\n\n

Yamal’s father: Losing the Ballon d’Or is the “greatest moral damage”<\/p>\n\nYamal’s father<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nDe la Fuente responded that “he was not interested” in Flick’s complaints.\n\nDue to the injury, Yamal missed a total of four matches. Bar\u00e7a’s sporting director, Deco, has spoken with his counterpart at the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF), Aitor Karanka, to ensure better communication between the club and the national team.\n\nSpain leads its World Cup qualifying group with a perfect record. Six points against Georgia and Bulgaria would secure their place in the World Cup if Turkey does not win in Bulgaria and if the Georgia vs. Turkey match ends in a draw.\n\n\n
