Team news
Spain have called up new Real Madrid centre-back Dean Huijsen fresh off his departure from Bournemouth, meaning he could start. But due to the fact the game takes place less than a week out from the Champions League final, PSG midfielder Fabian Ruiz could be rested.
France face a bigger selection problem should the Nations League clash come too soon for those who competed in Munich, with PSG quintet Desire Doue, Ousmane Dembele, Bradley Barcola, Warren Zaire-Emery and Lucas Hernandez all potentially restricted to bit-part roles. Inter Milan duo Marcus Thuram and Benjamin Pavard may also have limited involvement.
Predicted line-ups
Spain XI: Simon; Porro, Cubarsi, Huijsen, Cucurellla; Olmo, Zubimendi, Merino; Yamal, Morata, Williams.

Manchester United, PSG Receive Major Boost From Fabrizio Romano on £63M-Rated Transfer Target
PSG have been keeping tabs on Victor Osimhen since last year, and with the summer transfer window approaching, speculation around his future is ramping up. According to a recent report from GIVE ME SPORT, Manchester United are becoming increasingly concerned about PSG's strong interest in the 26-year-old, with the French club now considered the frontrunner to sign him. Advertisement The report claims PSG are prepared to meet both Osimhen's salary demands and his £63 million release clause. It also notes that Manchester United and Chelsea now see PSG as their biggest competition in the race for the striker. Manchester United, PSG target not headed to Saudi ArabiaOn Thursday, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported that Osimhen's potential move to Al Hilal is on the verge of collapsing, as there is still no agreement between the club and the player. Meanwhile, Galatasaray have entered the race with serious intent and are making a strong push to complete the deal. Meanwhile, TBR Football recently claimed that Liverpool have identified Osimhen as one of two key targets to strengthen their No. 9 position this summer. The outlet's chief correspondent, Graeme Bailey, added that Liverpool have already taken steps behind the scenes toward a potential move. Osimhen is reportedly keen on a switch to the Premier League. This stance gives English clubs a potential advantage in the race for his signature. Still, Napoli reportedly remain firm on their valuation and have no plans to lower their asking price.

Chiesa ‘shocked' by Juventus cull and stark Thiago Motta warning
Federico Chiesa reveals what Thiago Motta told him before his move to Liverpool and why he was 'shocked' by some of the decisions made at Juventus this season. The winger sat down with the Corriere dello Sport for a lengthy interview and you can read the rest of his comments here. Advertisement He made the transfer to Liverpool late last summer for a minimal fee of €12m plus bonuses, as Juve did not want to risk losing him as a free agent with the contract running down. Although Chiesa was bitterly criticised by fans for that departure, he insists it was not what he wanted at all.

I told him that I was ready to fight for my place, to prove I could still be of use to Juventus, but there was nothing to be done. It's his choice,' explained the Italy international in the Corriere dello Sport. Advertisement His was only one of many changes to the squad over the last 12 months, which saw some legends of the locker room shoved aside. 'Everyone knew Szczesny and Rabiot were not part of their plans, but seeing Fagioli and Danilo pushed out shocked me. Dani was such a strong reference point in the dressing room, it was a choice I simply did not understand, nor agree with.'

Both Chiesa and Danilo made their feelings clear on the matter. Director of sport Cristiano Giuntoli has also now been axed, just two years after he was poached from Napoli.

In the Final, once they were 2-0 up after 20 minutes, it was over. You could see Inter were psychologically crushed.' Inter were eventually defeated 5-0 on the night in Munich.
