De la Fuente shakes things up: historic Spain squad bombshell
The Spanish national team is heading into its World Cup preparations with some surprising selection decisions. Several prominent names are missing from head coach Luis de la Fuente’s squad — and are already sparking debate.
The team will assemble on May 30. De la Fuente has already confirmed nine additional backup players who are expected to be available for the international match against Iraq on Spanish soil. Among the most notable names in the extended group are Javi Guerra and Gonzalo García.
Even more attention, however, is being drawn to the players who did not make the final squad. In goal, Alex Remiro is absent. In defense, Dean Huijsen, Robin Le Normand, and Dani Carvajal, among others, are not included in the squad.
De la Fuente has also left out several well-known names in attack. Pablo Fornals, Espí, Jorge de Frutos, Isi Palazón, and Samu are also not part of the final squad.
Particularly remarkable is one historic detail: not a single Real Madrid player is included in Spain’s entire 26-man squad. That has never happened before.
What do you think? Will Spain win the title with this squad? Feel free to write it in the comments!
