Spain’s defender Cesar Azpilicueta attends press conference at the Qatar University training site in Doha on November 19, 2022, ahead of the Qatar 2022 World Cup football tournament. AFPPIX: Experienced Spain defender Cesar Azpilicueta said Saturday he was excited by the squad’s “bold” youngsters as La Roja set their sights on a second World Cup crown.
“What surprised me most is their boldness, they’re not afraid -- the way they fit into the game, it’s a pleasure to see this readiness for the age that they have,“ Azpilicueta said on Saturday. Azpilicueta, who made his Spain debut in 2013 under World Cup-winning manager Vicente del Bosque in a friendly in Doha, believes Balde is ready for the tournament despite being uncapped.
The 2010 World Cup winners trained on Saturday under Luis Enrique's watchful eye, with Marco Asensio returning after missing the Friday session.
