Spain's national football team, fresh off winning the World Cup, will return to action this weekend with a match against England, marking its first outing since lifting the trophy, according to France 24.

The match will be Spain's opening fixture in the Nations League, a competition that pits European national teams against one another outside of World Cup and European Championship qualifying windows. Saturday's game against England will be closely watched as fans get their first look at the world champions since their triumph.

Ahead of the match, the Spanish squad held an open training session that drew a large turnout of supporters eager to see the team in person following its World Cup success.

Details on the venue, kickoff time, and the full squad list for the match were not specified in the available report. Spain's World Cup victory capped a period of sustained success for the national team, which has been considered among the strongest sides in international football in recent seasons.

England, meanwhile, will look to test itself against the newly crowned champions as both sides continue preparations for upcoming international fixtures.
