Premier League trio Marcos Alonso, Alvaro Morata and Cesc Fabregas have been omitted from Spain's World Cup for the tournament this summer in Russia. It comes as a major surprise for the duo, who play for Chelsea together.
It had been expected that the experienced three would be a part of Spain's squad for the showpiece tournament, but all three Chelsea players have been left behind. The news will come as a shock to many, as the Spanish trio had all been important members of the Blues' FA Cup winning squad.
Goalkeepers: David de Gea, Pepe Reina, Kepa Arrizabalaga
Defenders: Gerard Pique, Jordi Alba, Dani Carvajal, Sergio Ramos, Nacho Fernandez, Alvaro Odriozola, Cesar Azpilicueta, Nacho Monreal.
Midfielders: Sergio Busquets, Andres Iniesta, David Silva, Isco, Koke, Saul Niguez, Thiago Alcantara,
Forwards: Rodrigo Moreno, Iago Aspas, Diego Costa, Lucas Vazquez, Marco Asensio.
Spain are in the same group as Portugal - the Euro 2016 winners - Iran and Morocco, and are hot favourites to qualify for the next round.
Spain's squad will meet on Monday to begin their training for the tournament in Russia.
