The decision is something of a surprise with the Spain boss calling up Alejandro Grimaldo instead for games against Cyprus and Georgia.
De la Fuente didn’t really want to talk about Balde when speaking to the press after announcing his squad but did send some kind of message.
“I will only talk about players with physical problems. Balde is another player and I encourage him to continue working harder because it is good for Spanish football,” he said.
