Spain’s football federation, the RFEF, approves a contract renewal for Luis de la Fuente as head coach of the national team, extending his deal to 2032. Multiple outlets report the decision follows negotiations that had been ongoing for weeks, with the renewal now confirmed publicly.
The reports describe de la Fuente as 65 years old and highlight his record with Spain, including success at major tournaments. The Athletic notes he has already led Spain to achievements including a World Cup, European Championship and Nations League, while other coverage frames the extension as a vote of confidence after World Cup success.
Outlets differ slightly on the specifics of the timeline. One report states the extension runs until 2032, while another adds that it covers major upcoming competitions, including the 2028 and 2032 European Championships and the 2030 World Cup, as outlined by the federation. Overall, all accounts agree that the renewal keeps de la Fuente in charge for the next cycle of international events.
