Héctor Fort (18 years old) is set to join the Spanish U-19 team from September 3 to 8 in Torrelodones, following the lead of Paco Gallardo. He is the sole Barça player selected by the ‘La Rojilla’ coach for training sessions at the Ciudad del Fútbol in Las Rozas during those days.
The Spanish team is back in action after clinching the European championship on July 28 in Northern Ireland, triumphing over France in the final (2-0). Notably, Dani Rodríguez had an outstanding tournament, playing a pivotal role in all matches.
Héctor Fort completed a full pre-season under Hansi Flick, although the German coach has yet to field him at Mestalla, Montjuïc, or Vallecas. The Blaugrana player is currently training with the team this week and is expected to feature in the match against Real Valladolid on Saturday at 17:00 (Movistar+ LaLiga) at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys.
