Barça B: Gai will get Spanish nationality soon

Spanish football site Airfutbol claims that Barcelona Atlètic wing attacker and Israel youth international Gai Assulin (17) will obtain the Spanish nationality in the next month (read more here).

This would mean that Gai, who's recovering from an injury, will from that moment on be available for the first team, which he wasn't until now because he isn't a European Union citizen. Although he hasn't yet played an official game with Israel's senior national team, it seems unlikely that the attacker will choose to play for Spain in the future.

He already played for Israel, he came on for Benayoun i remember...he was only 16 years old :o

That's true, but it was a friendly game, E. And that apparently doesn't count for the FIFA, so he could still play for Spain if he wishes.
