    FIFA World Cup: Spain coach Luis de la Fuente said star player Lamine Yamal "recovered well" but will not start in the team's first game of the 2026 FIFA World Cup against Cabo Verde on Monday.

    Yamal has been sidelined since tearing his hamstring while scoring a penalty in Barcelona's La Liga game against Celta Vigo in April.

    "He is in good condition, he recovered in time as we expected," De la Fuente told a press conference, as quoted by Xinhua. "All the injured players recovered well and all of them are fit to play, but Lamine, Victor (Munoz) and Nico (Williams) will not start, their playing time will be decided by how the game unfolds."
