Spain U23 represent the country in international football.
Overview
Spain's under-23 national football team represents the country in international competitions restricted to players aged 23 and below, most notably the UEFA European Under-21 Championship and the Olympic Games football tournament. The team is administered by the Royal Spanish Football Federation and draws from the same development structures that have long produced technically refined players at senior level. Spain has won the UEFA European Under-21 Championship on multiple occasions, establishing a consistent record of success at that level.
The current squad includes several players who have already gained senior international experience or established themselves at prominent European clubs. Pau Cubarsí Paredes and Eric García are central defenders associated with FC Barcelona, while Miguel Gutiérrez plays at left back. Goalkeepers Joan García and Arnau Tenas have featured in competitive domestic football, and Alejandro Iturbe has drawn attention as an emerging forward.
The team's playing style typically emphasises close passing, positional discipline and technical control, reflecting broader principles applied across Spanish football at all age groups.
