MADRID, June 5 — Real Madrid defender Nacho was called up to the Spain squad for the Nations League finals today after an injury to David Garcia.

After receiving medical reports from Osasuna, coach Luis de la Fuente gave the nod to the 33-year-old Nacho to link up with the squad.

Spain will play Italy on June 15, a day after the opening Nations League semi-final between the Netherlands and Croatia.
