Spain coach Luis Enrique have named their 24-man squad instead of 26 for EURO 2020 finals. When asked about it Enrique said, “We don’t want to take any more because we want everyone to have a chance of playing, and we know that only around 18 or 19 will actually play.”
Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos failed to make the cut into the squad after a injury ridden Laliga season. Surprisingly no player from Real Madrid is selected for the squad.
