Luis de la Fuente announces first Spain squad

  /  autty

New Spain manager Luis de la Fuente has announced his first, highly-anticipated, squad for the upcoming European qualifiers against Norway and Scotland.

Sergio Ramos was controversially already ruled out of selection by de la Fuente, which already set him on the back foot with the Spanish media.

De la Fuente has announced a squad that will appease many with their shouts for Iago Aspas to be included, while current Zarra leader Joselu Mato has also earned his first call-up.

Real Madrid have an increased presence in the squad with Dani Carvajal, Dani Ceballos and Nacho Fernandez all making the cut. Jordi Alba and Eric Garcia drop from the list, and it is the first in many years without a fit Sergio Busquets, but Barcelona do have Alejandro Balde, Pedri and Gavi included.
