"How many hours do I study? Well, since we have a lot of free time, it's not something that I put in and say: 'Today at least two hours', when I'm in the room with nothing to do, I take the iPad and do a couple of homework."

The young forward will return to play on June 30 as Luis De la Fuente's Spain faces surprise contender Georgia in the Round of 16. Spain aims to secure a record fourth Euros title.
