The Spanish Football Federation has rocked the football world - just a day before the start of the championship, they dismissed head coach Julen Lopetegui.
The main reason for this was an agreement reached yesterday with the Madrid "Real" club. The coach was supposed to take over the reins of the "white" team immediately after the World Cup, but the federation made a difficult decision.
It is said that both Sergio Ramos and Andres Iniesta tried to convince before the press conference that he would not dismiss Lopetegui from his duties, but the federation did not listen to the players' opinion.
This is a particularly big shock for the national team, which is considered one of the contenders to win the world championships. J. Lopetegui took over the national team in 2016 and did not lose any of his matches.
The Spanish national team begins their journey in the World Cup this Friday in a match against Portugal.
