Rodri has named the one England player Spain will have to 'keep under control' in the Euro 2024 final. 

Spain will be seeking to win their first major silverware since 2012 when they face the Three Lions in Sunday's final in Berlin. 

Luis de la Fuente's men made it to the last two after coming from behind to beat France 2-1 thanks to goals by Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo.

Asked which England player he'd remove, the Manchester city midfielder told AS: 'They have a lot of them. I love Phil Foden because I know him, he's with me. 

'He's a player who has to be kept under control because he has an innate ability to move in a small space. But there are many players who can do a lot of damage. 

'I don't like to focus on one player. I like to take a complete picture of England. And we go with our weapons, one on one.'

In the semi-final win over the Netherlands, Foden had been replaced by the time Watkins' goal went in, but earlier had a shot cleared off the line and hit the post in a much-improved display from the Manchester City playmaker.   

'I know them well, I know the culture of English football perfectly. They have a very talented team, players who can unbalance and who can control all aspects of the game,' Rodri said when asked about England. 

'They defend well, they can attack you, they are good at set pieces. We have to work on how to hurt them. We have our weapons, we are confident that we can beat them.'

Southgate switched to three at the back in the quarter-final win over Switzerland and kept it the same in the semi-final. 

On the Three Lions recent change in system, Rodri added: 'I think I've said it before. We haven't played any games the same way.

'One of the best things we're doing is adapting to our opponents.'
