Overview
- The Royal Spanish Football Federation unanimously ratified a six‑year extension on Monday that keeps Luis de la Fuente as head coach until the end of the 2032 European Championship.
- De la Fuente and RFEF president Rafael Louzán will hold a formal press conference to present the agreement and outline the federation's plans for the next tournament cycles.
- Federation sources told reporters the renewal, which updates an earlier shorter deal, includes a substantial pay rise though exact financial terms have not been disclosed.
- The extension rewards de la Fuente's recent run of success — Euro 2024, the 2026 World Cup and a 38‑match unbeaten sequence — and cements his record as Spain's most decorated coach.
- RFEF frames the move as a stability measure to align coaching, squad selection and logistics for Euro 2028, Spain's role in hosting the 2030 World Cup and preparations for Euro 2032.
