According to Mundo Deportivo, during the October international break that just concluded, Spanish referees were the most frequently appointed by UEFA across 104 UEFA Nations League matches, receiving a total of nine appointments and surpassing Germany and Italy.

The FIFA international window, which began on September 21, officially concluded last Tuesday evening, with UEFA Nations League group stage matches taking place throughout this period. The next window will determine the final standings. Spain's Referees Technical Committee has every reason to be proud of this achievement, as Spanish referees received the most appointments among all European nations across the 104 matches played through Tuesday night. Specifically, Spanish referee representatives received nine appointments, placing them ahead of German referees, who had eight appointments, and Italian referees, who ranked third with seven. Including assistant referees, VAR officials, and additional VAR personnel, the Spanish refereeing team received a total of 54 appointments.

Alejandro Hernández Hernández, Spain's international referee who led the last World Cup final, was selected twice to oversee matches across the first three matchdays. First, he oversaw the Netherlands-Germany match, which marked the managerial debuts of Xavi Hernández and Jürgen Klopp. Then, last Thursday, he took charge of the Wales-Norway match. Other appointed referees include José María Alexis Martínez, Jesús Gil Manzano, Juan Martínez Munuera, José Luis Munuera Montero, and Javier Alberola Rojas.

Germany ranks second with eight referee appointments and a total of 54 refereeing team members. Italy sits third with seven referee appointments and a total of 49 team members.

Additionally, the second centralized training session for referees this season will take place on November 9 in Sanxenxo, Galicia, during the upcoming FIFA international break. On that date, LaLiga referees, VAR officials, and additional VAR personnel assigned to the top division will be called to participate, followed by Segunda División referees. They must pass a physical fitness test to continue officiating in the top tier.
