After facing Lamine Yamal’s Spain in the Finalissima, Lionel Messi will play another friendly with Argentina later in March.

Spain have established themselves as one of the best national teams in the world, arriving as top favorites at the 2026 World Cup. However, a growing problem between Lamine Yamal's Barcelona and Dani Carvajal's Real Madrid worries them ahead the tournament.

Lamine Yamal and Dean Huijsen, teammates on the Spain national team, were involved in a tense exchange during the final of the Spanish Super Cup.

A Barcelona player is reportedly set to be called up by Spain head coach Luis De La Fuente for the 2026 Finalissima against Argentina.

With Joan Garcia battling for a 2026 World Cup spot by returning to hostile territory and Gerard Martin alongside him in defense, Barcelona was pushed to its limits by a fearless Espanyol side.

With a gap of three months between both competitions, Spain head coach Luis de la Fuente addressed the importance of the Finalissima against Lionel Messi's Argentina as part of the preparation for the 2026 World Cup.

Spain matched a record previously achieved only by Germany in the FIFA Rankings.

Spain and Argentina will face each other in the 2026 Finalissima, and Spain coach Luis De La Fuente compared Lionel Messi to Cristiano Ronaldo.

Yet as the countdown to the 2026 World Cup continues, an uncomfortable question is beginning to surface: What if winning the Ballon d’Or no longer guarantees even a starting place for your country?

With Pulisic firmly established as one of the Rossoneri’s decisive figures, the club may be weighing up a move that would bring one of modern soccer’s most iconic defenders into the same locker room.

Although he is only 18 years old, Lamine Yamal aims to be Spain's leader in the 2026 World Cup due to his impressive talent. However, legend Raul Gonzalez surprised many by contradicting expectations, giving his strong opinion about the young star.

Spain will face Argentina in the Finalissima and then follow a series of additional plans as part of their preparation for the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

As Spain begins to narrow their options for the next FIFA World Cup, a familiar and trusted figure is returning to the spotlight—placing unexpected pressure on a younger star at club level.

While Yamal continues to symbolize Spain’s generational shift, a very different and far more controversial decision is taking shape behind the scenes.

The decision by Lamine Yamal to play for Spain instead of Morocco has been criticized by an African icon.
