Football/ UEFA Nations League: Dani Olmo leaves Spain’s squad after knee issue

Barcelona — Spanish midfielder Dani Olmo has been forced to leave the national team camp after experiencing discomfort in his right knee during Spain’s opening match.

The FC Barcelona playmaker has returned to the Catalan capital to recover under the supervision of his club’s medical team.

Although there is no serious injury, Spain’s medical staff deemed it wise to take no risks.
