Spain's telephone number 9Now More Accessible Than Ever
Let's get down to the burning question – who's gonna score the goals for Spain against France in the Nations League semifinals? With de la Fuente uncertain about his attackers, it's a wild ride!
Our boys are heading to Stuttgart (Germany) for the big dance, and Spain's on a mission to reach their third consecutive major tournament final. They've got this score-settling match with France, ya know, the ones they outsmARTed in the Euro Cup semis with goals from Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo.
The main question on Spain's lineup is who'll step up as the spearhead, forming a fearsome trident with the Barcelona FC winger and Nico Williams. There are some heavy hitters in the race: the Madrilenian Álvaro Morata, who's been scorching since De la Fuente took charge, bagging nine goals and three assists; Mikel Oyarzabal, the Real Sociedad forward who shone in the quarterfinal duel against the Netherlands with a brace; and Samu Chukwueze, the young Porto forward who's got some zip in his step.
Oyarzabal's been a frontrunner since his cracking performance in the Euro Cup. On top of that, he's got a sparkling end to the season with Real Sociedad, netting seven goals and one assist in the last 11 games. But Morata's not far behind. After a shaky start with Galatasaray, he found his groove and scored four goals in the last six games. Still, it's uncertain whether he'll secure the starting spot, given his recent stumbles in the elimination match against the Netherlands.
Lastly, there's Samu Chukwueze. The Porto forward has been tearing it up lately, with four goals in his last four games. He's highlighted as the future '9' for Spain, but his lack of experience with the senior national team could hold him back. Regardless, De la Fuente has kept him on the roster, hinting that he's a part of Spain's future plans.
There are always a few curveballs in store for sporting events, so, who knows? We might see Dani Olmo playing as the 'false 9' in a bold move by De la Fuente. But until we hear more, let's watch this space!

Spain's pursuit of their third consecutive major tournament final coincides with a score-settling match against France, a rival they outsmarted in the Euro Cup semis with goals from Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo, indicating their prowess in football during high-stakes encounters. With the strategic alliance of Barcelona FC's winger and Nico Williams, De la Fuente faces a dilemma over who will spearhead the attack, among potential candidates like Álvaro Morata, Mikel Oyarzabal, Samu Chukwueze, and perhaps even a surprise nominee such as Dani Olmo playing as the 'false 9'.
