• Calendar When is the first game of Spain in the World Cup in Qatar 2022

Spain already has a team for the World Cup in Qatar that starts in two weeks.

The coach,

Luis Enrique Martínez

, unveiled this Friday his list of 26 summoned with the presence of

Marco Asensio, Nico Williams

and

Ansu Fati

.

There were no changes in the goal (

Unai Simón

,

Robert Sánchez

and

David Raya

), in defense (

Carvajal

,

Azpilicueta, Eric García, Hugo Guillamón, Pau Torres, Laporte, Gayá

and

Jordi Alba

), nor in midfield (

Busquets, Rodri, Gavi, Soler, Marcos Llorente, Pedri

and

Koke

), but up front, as expected.

The five regulars (

Ferran Torres, Sarabia, Morata, Dani Olmo

and

Yeremy Pino

) ​​were joined by Nico Williams and Marco Asensio.

Luis Enrique also revealed two unknowns that hovered over his announcement until the last moment.

Finally Sergio Ramos will not attend the World Cup, despite the debate generated.

And finally the 26 available places will be filled, a rarity in this tournament.

In the previous European Championship, 26 footballers could be called up, but only 24 entered the list for each match;

this time there will be 26 available in all matches, so the benches will be very long.

All those summoned will arrive this Monday at the Ciudad Deportiva de Las Rozas, where they will begin training, and next Tuesday they will travel to Jordan, where they will face the local team on Thursday in a final friendly prior to the World Cup.

They will then head to Qatar and its headquarters, the University of Doha, from where they will prepare for the group stage matches against Costa Rica (November 23, 5:00 p.m.), Germany (November 27, 8:00 p.m.) and Japan (November 1, December 8:00 p.m.).

The list

Goalkeepers: Unai Simón, Robert Sánchez and David Raya.

Defenses: Dani Carvajal, César Azpilicueta, Eric García, Hugo Guillamón, Pau Torres, Aymeric Laporte, Jordi Alba and José Gayá.

Midfielders: Sergio Busquets, Rodrigo Hernández, Pablo Páez Gavira 'Gavi', Carlos Soler, Marcos Llorente, Pedri González and Koke Resurrection.

Forwards: Ferran Torres, Nico Williams, Yeremy Pino, Álvaro Morata, Marco Asensio, Pablo Sarabia, Dani Olmo and Ansu Fati.
