Something really unfortunate happened to Brian Hill.
The Spanish Football Association announced the change to the existing call-up list on its official website on the 7th (Korea time). Ferran Torres was injured while playing for Barcelona and needed a replacement, and surprisingly, Hill was the target.
Hill rejoined the national team for the first time in three years since October 2010. It was possible because Hill immediately turned the tables as soon as he left Tottenham. Hill was recognised as a huge prospect until he wore his Tottenham jersey in 2021.
Although he was a member of Sevilla, he left for Eibar and was honored to be selected for the Spanish national team at the age of 20 when he played the role of a boy's breadwinner. Expectations for Hill were also very high in Spain. Hill made his national team debut immediately, and it looked like he would steadily make the national team.
But for the next three years, Hill was away from the national team. I had no choice but to. This is because Tottenham's performance was so disastrous. Since Tottenham's transfer, the playing time has been drastically reduced as it has not settled down at all. He left for Valencia on loan after half a season, but Hill also failed to provide an opportunity for a rebound in Valencia.
In the second season, Hill was determined to compete for Tottenham, but the result did not change. He couldn't overcome the disadvantage of being physically weak and showed selfish play on the field, perhaps because of his impatience to show. Eventually, he returned to his former team, Seville, through the winter transfer market in the 2022-2023 season.
In Seville, Hill showed promise of a resurgence. Naturally, Hill looked like he would leave, but he stayed at Tottenham again. Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou gave Hill several chances, but he did not allow any more time as the player was sluggish.
This summer Tottenham tried to dispose of Hill but when it didn't go their way, they re-signed and sent him on loan to Girona. Heading to Girona, Hill's performance came back to life. He immediately took the lead. He showed good performance by becoming the ace of Girona.
Thanks to this, he joined the Spanish national team for the first time in three years. But Hill had to go back home.
The Spanish Football Association said on its official channel again on the 7th that "Hill is physically uncomfortable. In response, the Spanish Football Association and Girona decided to treat the player"Hill has been excluded from the call-up of the national team. Hill, who was enjoying the 'Taltenham Effect' properly, had to go back home.
