Spain coach Luis de la Fuente says Barcelona attacker Ferran Torres deserves his call up.

However, De le Fuente admits the player needs a confidence "boost".

"I've known Ferran Torres for many years, I've seen his evolution and maturity as a footballer," he said.

"He needs more confidence to be the Ferran we need. We can't not use players of this calibre," he warned.

Therefore, with the injuries to Marco Asensio and Dani Olmo, "we considered it the right time to call him up due to the absences."

The Spain coach added: "He won't waste the opportunity."
