The Hindu  

Manchester City defender Aymeric Laporte will be eligible to play for Spain at next month's European Championship after world football governing body FIFA approved his switch from France on Friday. "The player Aymeric Laporte is eligible to play for the representative teams of the RFEF - Spanish Football Association with immediate effect," it said in a statement. READ: Laporte was allowed to declare for Spain after FIFA amended its rules last year to allow players to switch national teams. Laporte, who signed for City in January 2018 for 57 million pounds, has never played for the France senior team despite making over 50 appearances for its youth teams.
