De La Fuente: Simón will be available tomorrow; We'll send our strongest line-up

In the final round of World Cup qualifiers, Spain will host second-placed Turkey at home. Manager Luis de la Fuente outlined the team's preparations during the pre-match press conference.

How is Unai Simón?

All players are currently available. He just took a knock, nothing serious. You're already aware of Heisen's situation, but everyone else is fine.

How crucial is Laporte to the team's build-up play?

Extremely crucial. As I've stated before, he's the finest ball-playing centre-back, providing exceptional distribution and incisive through-balls within our system. He's the defensive leader, possesses outstanding communication skills, and is a complete player. Our strength lies in knowing precisely which players best suit our approach, and Laporte is one of them.

Will you make significant changes to the line-up tomorrow?

We approach this match with a profound sense of responsibility. It concerns our reputation and reflects the value of our achievements. We aim to maintain our position as world number one. While we've effectively secured qualification, we intend to keep winning – players never tire of victory. The squad won't undergo major alterations; we'll field a competitive team that demonstrates respect for our opponents. To secure victory, we must deploy our strongest available lineup.
