Barcelona and Athletic Club stars earn first Spain call-ups in squad without Real Madrid players

Spain have annnounced their squad for the final international break of 2024, as they face Denmark and Switzerland in the Nations League. La Roja have secured their spot in the finals of the competition, but have yet to secure the top spot in their group.

Luis de la Fuente has announced a bumper squad of 28 players, with captain Alvaro Morata a last-minute inclusion, having suffered a head injury in training this week with AC Milan. The headline inclusions are Athletic Club’s Aitor Paredes, Barcelona’s Marc Casado, and Porto’s Samu Omorodion, who are all in the senior side for the first time.

Dani Carvajal is injured, and thus there are no Real Madrid players included in the squad, with Joselu Mato also dropping out.

Full Squad:

Goalkeepers: David Raya, Alex Remiro, Robert Sanchez.

Defenders: Aitor Paredes, Oscar Mingueza, Pau Cubarsi, Pedro Porro, Dani Vivian, Aymeric Laporte, Pau Torres, Marc Cucurella and Alejandro Grimaldo.

Midfielders: Martin Zubimendi, Fabian Ruiz, Mikel Merino, Alex Baena, Dani Olmo, Marc Casado and Pedri.

Forwards: Lamine Yamal, Ferran Torres, Nico Williams, Yeremy Pino, Mikel Oyarzabal, Alvaro Morata, Ayoze Perez, Samu Omorodion and Bryan Zaragoza.
