Overview
- The Spanish Football Federation confirmed Torres left the national team camp because of persistent pain in his left ankle and will miss the remaining two international fixtures.
- Torres will travel back to Paris to complete a club-managed treatment and rehabilitation programme under the supervision of PSG medical staff.
- Spain's doctors and PSG's medical team monitored the issue throughout the camp and jointly decided that withdrawal was the best route to allow full recovery.
- Spain manager Luis de la Fuente called up under-21 forward Carlos Espi as immediate cover for the senior squad.
- Torres had started the season strongly for PSG with several early goals, so his short-term absence reduces attacking options for both Spain and PSG while his final prognosis is awaited.
