Spain Names Injured Lamine Yamal in World Cup Squad as Real Madrid Stars Omitted
Injured Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal makes Spain’s World Cup squad despite missing the end of the season with a torn hamstring. It’s the first time no Real Madrid player has been selected for the national team. Coach Luis de la Fuente says he doesn’t favour any club and wants only players proud to represent Spain. Athletic Bilbao winger Nico Williams also makes the 26-man roster despite a recent hamstring concern. Spain opens against debutants Cape Verde on 15 June, then faces Saudi Arabia and Uruguay in Group H. The tournament runs from 11 June to 19 July.
