WHAT HAPPENED? The 20-year-old is off to the World Cup after being named in Spain's 26-man squad for the showpiece event by manager Luis Enrique. Fati has not played for Spain since October 2020, after being beset by injuries, but has returned to full fitness to make three La Liga appearances this season. He has now reacted to the news with a post on Instagram: "Huge pride to represent Spain at the World Cup. More than just a dream! Let’s go!"
