The defeat of Spain in front of Colombia in London (0-1) allowed to Luis de la Fuente test an alternative diagram thinking in the Eurocopa and in the possible return of Pedri to the action. With Gavi descartado for the tournament to contest in Germany, the trainer riojeño tested the Friday with a 4-2-3-1 that gives back to The Red a role of mediapunta that, in front of Colombia, improvised Gerard Moreno to backs of Joselu.

For De la Fuente, the 4-3-3 characteristic of the last years seems descartado without the presence of Gavi like interior by left and, thinking in the turn of the of Tegueste, the míster thinks that in this place can take out much more benefit of his creativity. Besides, the role of mediapunta is not new for the '8' of the FC Barcelona, since in the last Olympic games surrendered to a very high level in this place.

Pedri Will be the axis of Spain in the next Euro

In principle, Pedri has to surpass entirely his injury in the rectum femoral of the right thigh in April. Although the date of his return still is not defined, the Barça still trusts to have the Canarian for the crossing of quarter-finals of Champions in front of Paris Saint-Germain, although the posture of the club is firm regarding avoiding run risks by a turn anticipated.

If the one of Tegueste attains to arrive to the 100 % to the Euro, Luis de la Fuente does not have doubts on his main importance in Spain. Pedri Will be the axis of the diagram of The Red, independently of if it return or no the 4-3-3. In principle, when it touch to confront to rivals of lower hierarchy that bet for putting backwards, this approach is the most ideal, thinking in taking advantage of the disequilibrium of Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams.

In any case, the idea is that Pedri play more by the half, near of the area so that the balloon circulate more by his feet. Another of the jugones that has to be important in the Euro and that did not see action in front of Colombia is Dani Elm, in addition to a Rodri that promises to be the '5' ideal to give more depth to The Red in contrary field. Although the performance in front of the selected sudamericano was grey, still there is time to adjust details and arrive 'fine' to the summer.
