Yamal, Williams to be available for Spain's opening World Cup match

Spain coach Luis de la Fuente says Lamine Yamal, Nico Williams and Victor Munoz are on track to be available for their World Cup opening game against Cape Verde on June 15. Yamal, 18, has been managing groin issues and a hamstring injury suffered in April, while Williams and Munoz have also been recovering from injuries. The trio remained at Spain's training base in Chattanooga, Tennessee, on Sunday to continue their rehabilitation rather than travel for Monday's final warm-up match against Peru. De la Fuente told reporters that if there are no setbacks, all three are expected to be available and selected at some point in the match.
