Impact Llorente has logged just 17 international appearances for Spain, including six qualification contests in which he recorded a pair of assists. Considering he has started nine of those matches and subbed on in the other eight, he is far from guaranteed to earn a spot in the starting XI.

Impact Llorente started in each of the last two league matches against Espanyol and Mallorca but had missed eight straight games before then and was subbed out of Saturday's Copa del Rey match against Almazan. With only 23 players allowed for this friendly, Llorente will get a chance to recover his fitness ahead of the Nov. 23 opener against Costa Rica and it's likely Llorente will start at least once during the group stage even if he's not in the lineup during every game.

Starting versus Espanyol Llorente (thigh) is in the XI to face Espanyol Sunday.

Impact Llorente is making his return after four weeks and multiple matches on the mend. He has scored once and added four shots (one on target), ten chances created, 14 crosses (two accurate), and 11 tackles in nine appearances.

Impact Llorente has been out for a month, missing eight games in a busy October.

Llorente hasn't had a great season by his standards when fit, as he's scored once in nine starts before the injury.

Doesn't make squad list Llorente (thigh) didn't make the squad list for Saturday's match against Cadiz.

Impact Llorente's absence is to be expected as he has a better shot of coming back by Tuesday's trip to Porto. He's missed all but two-of-eight games in October due to his muscular injury but should be able to make a start or two once fit again, pushing Angel Correa and Rodrigo De Paul from the right flank. As a place with Spain at the World Cup is likely on the line for Llorente, getting fully fit will be a major goal in the coming weeks.

Trains Friday Llorente (thigh) returned to training during Friday's session ahead of Saturday's trip to Cadiz, according to Pablo Egea of MARCA.

Impact Llorente might have a tough time getting available by Saturday but it's still a positive sign that he's back with a couple of weeks to play before the World Cup break. He's already missed six straight matches and will hope to take back his place as a starter on the right wing and in midfield.

OCTOBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out up to six weeks Llorente suffered a thigh injury during Tuesday's 2-0 loss to Club Brugge in the UCL, his club confirmed after the game.

Impact Llorente is expected to miss up to six weeks, which knocks him out of the first half of the season but there's still a chance he's back by the World Cup. During his absence, Angel Correa could get his first serious run as a starter this season, as he's played once from kickoff in 10 appearances so far.

OCTOBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Comes off injured Llorente came off with an apparent thigh injury during Tuesday's clash with Brugge.

Impact Llorente was holding his thigh when he came off, replaced by Angel Correa. Llorente has been a consistent starter in all competitions, and with a hectic October schedule even a minor injury could force him out for multiple matches. Correa would be the likely replacement in all competitions, depending on formation. Llorente's next chance to return is Saturday's clash with Girona.

OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in win Llorente scored one goal from three shots (one on goal) and created two chances during Saturday's 2-0 win over Sevilla.

Impact Llorente found the net for the first time this season, taking as many shots as striker Alvaro Morata during Saturday's contest. He could be getting more comfortable in his role as a right-sided midfielder but what really helps Llorente is having a stable defense which allows him to get forward with more proficiency. If Llorente can keep up his offensive production, watch if he can come anywhere close to matching his 12-goal, 11-assist effort from the 2020/21 campaign.
