The Spain squad for their upcoming friendlies against Germany (Friday March 23 – Dusseldorf) and Argentina Tuesday March 27 – Wanda Metropolitano, Madrid) has been announced today (March 16, 2018), and coach Julien Lopetegui has sprung a few surprises after choosing to leave out Chelsea’s Alvaro Morata and Barcelona’s Sergi Roberto. Diego Costa, whose spot at Chelsea was effectively taken by Morata, was however picked in the squad.
The Spanish roster also has no place for domestic players like Espanyol’s Gerard Moreno and Sevilla’s Pablo Sarabia. Lopetegui also insisted that the door was not closed on World Cup selection for those who missed out on this squad.
Spain squad vs Germany & Argentina 2018:- De Gea, Kepa, Reina, Jordi Alba, Marcos Alonso, Nacho, Carvajal, Azpi, Odriozola, Sergio Ramos, Gerard Pique, Isco, Thiago Alcantara, David Silva, Andres Iniesta, Saul Niguez, Dani Parejo, Koke, Rodri, Asensio, Aspas, Rodrigo, Diego Costa, Lucas Vazquez
Young Juventus defender Joel Untersee has committed his international future to South Africa, choosing the country of his birth over Switzerland, whom he has represented at various youth levels. The news was announced by Bafana coach Stuart Baxter. Untersee, 24, was born in Johannesburg and is currently on loan at Serie B side Empoli from Juventus. If he does play for South Africa, he will join the likes of Pierre Issa, Davide Somma, Hans Vonk and others in the likes of players born in the Republic, but who primarily learnt and plied their trade abroad.
Baxter had also targetted Panagiotis Retsos, the young Greek defender, who like Untersee, was also born in Johannesburg. However the Leverkusen player was capped by Greece earlier this season which put paid to Baxter’s hopes of getting him into the Bafana setup.
Untersee is primarily a right back, but has also been employed on the right side of midfield by Empoli in the current 2017/18 season.
