Spain is the clear favorite, and that is not only on paper. I prefer to take the odds now, as after they qualify (in a group with Bulgaria, Turkey, and Georgia), my guess is the odds will drop down. They not only have Yamal, but also plenty of other young players, like the Williams brothers, P. Cubarsi, M. Casado, and others. They have one year to mature, and if they are free from injuries, I back Spain to become a world champion.

Spain are the reigning European Champions, and they recovered from the poor World Cup 2022, where they lost after penalties to Morocco. They have a very young squad, but they have already matured. Pedri proved that he is even more valuable than Yamal, and if he is fit, I think Spain will take the title.
