Aitana Bonmati is the star of the Spanish national team and wanted to fight with the team for the European Championship title. It is questionable whether this will succeed.
A few days before the start of the European Championship on July, Spain’s national team has to tremble for the use of his most important player. Aitana Bonmati is in the hospital after viral meningitis. It is open whether the world footballer will be fit in time.
As the Spanish Association RFEF announced on Saturday, the course of the illness of the 27-year-old is currently “uncertain”. Bonmati had already missed the last European Championship test game against Japan in Leganés, which Spain won 3-1. On Friday, the Barça player showed herself out of the hospital bed while watching the game on television.
The European Championships of the Spaniards opened to Switzerland on Sunday. In the preliminary round group B, the team meets Portugal, Belgium and Italy. Spain is part of the extended group of favorites, but has so far been able to achieve a final at the European Championships of women nor win the title. The semi -final remains the greatest success at the 1997 European Championship.
