Despite the scare, the mood in the camp shifted back to a more relaxed tone as the session concluded. Seven regular starters, including David Raya, Marc Cucurella and Pedri, are expected to return to the matchday squad for the Peru friendly after missing the previous outing against Iraq which ended in 1-1 draw. The technical staff is focused on ensuring the group reaches peak physical condition without further training-ground accidents.
The Spanish delegation is scheduled to fly to Mexico on Sunday evening to finalise their pre-tournament schedule. If Rodri’s ankle holds up as expected, the La Roja faithful can breathe a sigh of relief, though Gavi’s brutal approach to training has certainly served as a wake-up call for the squad about the fine line between intensity and injury.
