Overview

• The RFEF said Olmo has a muscle injury, will miss qualifiers against Georgia and Bulgaria, and will return to Barcelona for further tests and recovery.
• Coach Luis de la Fuente said Olmo arrived feeling fatigued, trained for about 15 minutes on Friday, then stopped after reporting discomfort.
• Spain indicated the issue is in his left leg, and multiple outlets reported a possible left calf–soleus lesion with an estimated two to four weeks out pending club evaluation.
• His availability for Barcelona’s first games after the break, including Girona and potentially El Clásico, is in doubt according to early media assessments.
• Barcelona have conveyed dissatisfaction with how Spain managed Olmo’s pre‑existing fatigue, echoing recent tensions over player handling reported after Lamine Yamal’s case.
