Luis de la Fuente visits displaced families amid Spain's massive wildfires

Spain’s national football coach Luis de la Fuente visited the La Marazuela sports complex in Las Rozas, Madrid, on 26 July 2026, where about 300 families evacuated by the wildfires were staying. He told TVE the trip was “an obligation and a pride” and urged those affected to feel the support of the whole country.

The Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) has opened its Ciudad del Fútbol residence in Las Rozas to house vulnerable families displaced by the fires. The wildfires have forced more than 116 000 people to evacuate or stay confined, roughly 100 000 in Madrid and Ávila and about 16 000 in Castellón. A national emergency has been declared in the provinces of Madrid, Ávila and Toledo, with police, civil‑protection, the army and other emergency services deployed to the fire‑affected zones.
