Luis de la Fuente set for new Spain deal after World Cup glory — reports

The Royal Spanish Football Federation has decided to extend the tenure of head coach Luis de la Fuente, according to AS. The 65-year-old tactician’s current contract runs until the summer of 2028, but the federation wants to keep him at the helm through the 2030 World Cup. The move comes as no surprise following Spain’s remarkable success under de la Fuente. He led La Roja to victory at Euro 2024 and followed that up with a World Cup triumph in 2026, beating Argentina 1-0 in extra time in the final. On top of that, de la Fuente previously won the Olympic Games, cementing his status as one of the most decorated coaches in the game. A new agreement is expected to be formalized in the coming weeks, ensuring continuity for a national team that has rediscovered its winning identity.
