Spain coach De la Fuente gets new deal after World Cup success
MADRID: Spain’s World Cup-winning coach Luis de la Fuente is to sign a new contract keeping him in the role until 2032, the Spanish football federation (RFEF) announced on Monday.
The Spanish football federation has announced that coach Luis de la Fuente is set to sign a new contract, securing his position until 2032. De la Fuente, who took charge of the national team in 2022, has led Spain to World Cup triumph, Euro 2024 triumph, and the 2023 UEFA Nations League title. The 65-year-old previously spent a decade working with Spain's youth teams before ascending to the senior role.
Rafael Louzan, chair of the Spanish FA's board of directors, praised de la Fuente as "the most successful head coach in the history of the national team" and emphasized that his long-term future with the RFEF is well-deserved. Spain will begin their post-World Cup campaign with a match against England on September 26, followed by a game against Croatia on October 3.
They will then return home to face the Czech Republic on October 5 before concluding their international window with a game against Croatia on October 7.
