Luis Enrique is “optimistic about what lies ahead” as Spain prepare to try and win Group A2 in the Nations League.

La Roja host Switzerland on Saturday knowing a win will secure top spot for them if Portugal lose to the Czech Republic.

Should they not seal it this weekend, Spain will have a second chance to do so when they travel to face Portugal in their final Nations League group game on Tuesday.

Speaking at a press conference on Friday, Luis Enrique was boosted by what he had seen in training from his squad, including first-time call-ups Borja Iglesias and Nico Williams.

“It has been the best week of training for the players since I became a coach,” he said. “Even Borja and Nico, making their debuts.

“I am optimistic about what lies ahead. A brutal week, even those who play little have the level to compete.”
