2010 WORLD CUP winners Spain have named their 23-man squad for this year’s tournament in Russia.
Chelsea’s Alvaro Morata is perhaps the biggest name to miss out on selection and he will watch this summer’s events from home alongside club-mate Cesc Fabregas.
Barcelona’s Andres Iniesta does get the nod, however, and he’s named alongside the likes of Marco Asensio, Lucas Vázquez and Sergio Busquets in midfield.
Sergio Ramos will captain the side from defence while the Iago Aspas, Rodrigo Moreno and Diego Costa are the only out-and-out strikers named.
Julen Lopetegui’s squad in full:
Goalkeepers: Kepa Arrizabalaga, David De Gea, Pepe Reina
Defenders: Dani Carjaval, Cesar Azpilicueta, Alvaro Odriozola, Sergio Ramos, Jordi Alba, Gerard Pique, Nacho, Nacho Monreal
Midfielders: Sergio Busquets, Saul Niguez, Koke, Thiago Alcantara, Andres Iniesta, David Silva, Isco, Marco Asensio, Lucas Vazquez
Forwards: Iago Aspas, Rodrigo Moreno, Diego Costa.
