After hearing that he has been called up to Spain U21, Fabián has spoken for Real Betis official channels.

More work to be called up again: “Yes, it can’t be just once. I have to keep working to go again and play with my team. This is a reward to make me stronger and keep working even harder.”

Who gave you the news?: “The first one was Barragán. He told me: ‘Fabi, congratulations, you’re going with the U21.’ I was a bit surprised and even I bit emotional.”

What did Quique Setién tell you?: “He made a joke about that I should thank him. I told him that I’ll pay him a meal when I come back.”
