If at the time of selling your UK property you are also tax resident in Spain it is possible the funds you raise will be subject to capital gains tax in Spain but my understanding is that it would depend on how much profit you have made. The difference between your original purchase price and the selling price. 

My suggestion would be to seek a view from a tax advisor in Spain competent in this area of taxation.

My wife and I gained Spanish Residency in 2018.

We sold a UK property in September 2020.

We paid CGT in the UK. As an overseas Resident, you have to declare and pay in the UK within 30 days, to avoid a (small) fine. 

We notified the Spanish tax authorities of this.
