Spain's FIFA World Cup Squad Shocks Fans with No Real Madrid Players

Spain Unveils Controversial World Cup Roster

Barcelona: In a groundbreaking announcement, Spain has revealed its FIFA World Cup squad, marking the first time in 92 years that no players from Real Madrid have been selected. This bold decision by coach Luis de la Fuente has sparked significant backlash, with many fans expressing their outrage over the exclusion of Real Madrid's prominent players.

The 26-member squad is predominantly filled with talent from Real Madrid's fierce rivals, Barcelona, who have seven players represented. Additionally, clubs such as Arsenal, Athletic Club, and Atlético Madrid each contribute three players to the team. Notably, the young prodigy Lamine Yamal has been included despite not being fully recovered from his injury.

Controversy Surrounds Spain's Squad Choices

In a surprising twist, Alvaro Morata, who led the team to victory in Euro 2024, has been left out of the squad. However, the lineup does include several high-profile players such as Pedri, Gavi, Pau Cubarsí, Eric García, Ferran Torres, Rodri, Mikel Merino, Martín Zubimendi, Nico Williams, and Dani Olmo.

Spain finds itself in Group H for the World Cup, competing against Cape Verde, Saudi Arabia, and Uruguay. Their opening match is scheduled for June 14 against Cape Verde, with warm-up matches against Iraq and Peru planned beforehand.
