Arsenal midfielder Martin Zubimendi has withdrawn from the Spain squad due to knee pain, becoming the 10th senior player to return to the Premier League leaders during the international break.
The Spanish Football Federation confirmed on Sunday that the 27-year-old was released from the squad.
Zubimendi, who played the final 13 minutes of Spain’s 3-0 victory over Serbia on Friday, reported discomfort in his right knee following the match.
The federation said the decision was made "to avoid any risk and protect the player's health," with the midfielder returning for immediate assessment by Arsenal medical staff.
