Hello jimsan,
Thank you for your reply. Although there is no deadline for exchanging your green card for a TIE as explained by Kimmy, you did ask if you should " return a.s.a.p. to obtain your new card" so I assume you are in the UK. Just reminding you, in case you weren't aware, that you can ...

Well spotted El, I'd forgotten that jimsan's original post suggested he was not currently in Spain.
Jimsan, you don't say when you left Spain, but you can't be out of the country for more than 182 days without voiding your residency. Although Spain is not currently allowing UK tourists to enter, Spanish citizens and Spanish residents travelling from the UK are allowed to enter Spain.
Kind regards,
Kim
