The Iberian nation became the first country to win back-to-back European championships with a World Cup in between when they thumped Italy 4-0 in Sunday's final in Kiev.
But such is their thirst for trophies that Vicente del Bosque's side are already looking ahead to September's opening Group I qualification match away to Georgia.
Spain have set new standards on their way to an unprecedented third straight major title for a European team and, with a relatively young squad, must be firm favourites to win their second World Cup in South America in two years' time.
At his post-match news conference at the Olympic Stadium on Sunday, the 61-year-old Del Bosque paid tribute to the work of his predecessor Luis Aragones, who engineered Spain's victory at Euro 2008 before stepping down.
"We have followed the path laid out by Aragones and now we have new goals," Del Bosque said.
"France, Belarus, Georgia and Finland in World Cup qualification and then the Confederations Cup," he added, in reference to the World Cup curtain-raiser in Brazil next year. "We want to put on a good show there."
A key player in Spain's success under Del Bosque is Xavi and the Barcelona playmaker came good in the final with two assists and a typically dominant display after an indifferent tournament.
"If I am feeling good I will be there," he told reporters after the final. "I will talk to the coach but basically yes. Let's see."
