Luis de la Fuente will be the selector men’s absolute until 2026, the year in which the next World Cup of the United States, Canada and Mexico. The managing committee of the Spanish Football Federation approved this Thursday the extension of the coach’s contract and with this the processing of a news that had been taken for granted for months has been completed.
De la Fuente was presented by Luis Rubiales as coach on December 8, 2022 after signing a contract in which a clause had already been included according to which the Federation could unilaterally extend the link until 2026. And now it has been the managing commission that has decided to activate that clause so that the one from Haro remains in charge of the team until beyond the 2026 World Cup.
Albert Luque, director of the Spanish soccer team, already made De la Fuente’s continuity official in January; “There is a lot of talk about Luis de la Fuente’s contract, but I, as the person in charge, can announce that Luis de la Fuente is renewed until the end of the 2026 World Cup. We are delighted, it is easy to work with him and, in the end, he He has won it.”
Luis de la Fuente himself already announced in October his intention to remain in office until 2026: “Thinking about the World Cup seems quite distant to me, but it is an illusion, of course. How could he not want a coach and a selector? participate in a World Cup and also in your country? It would be the best.”
