Le Normand is currently recovering from a head injury, while Laporte had to leave the match against Al-Kholood after just 35 minutes due to knee pain, as reported by Marca.
Although he has not yet received a formal diagnosis, the prevalence of knee injuries among elite players raises concerns for La Roja. On a positive note, Laporte was able to exit the stadium unaided.
In recent transfer windows, Laporte has been rumored to be considering a return to Europe, with clubs like Atletico Madrid, Athletic Club, and Real Madrid showing interest. Spain is set to face Denmark and Switzerland in their Nations League group in November, having already secured qualification. De la Fuente will be hoping to have Laporte back in action soon.
