Spain Euro 2020 squad has been announced and the main talking point is the omission of Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos.
The Spain national team coach Luis Enrique announced his group for the tournament, which was postponed last summer and will begin next month, on Monday morning.
Due to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic, each coach was granted a 26-man allowance for their Euros squad.
Enrique, however, opted to name just 24 players, leaving out Ramos.
Aymeric Laporte included
The Manchester City defender who had the injury plugged season and recent change nationality from France to Spanish was also included in the squad.
Wolves forward Adama Traore and Paris St Germain’s Pablo Sarabia were surprise inclusions as forwards ahead of Celta Vigo’s Iago Aspas, the second-highest Spanish goalscorer in La Liga this season.
