Spanish international squad

No real surprises in Del Bosque's squad for the friendly international in Puerto Rico next week, the only addition to the Euro line up being the inclusion of Málaga left back Monreal. The coach has left out the three Olympians, Javi Martínez, Mata and Jordi Alba, still recovering after a long summer, and he also rested Xavi and Negredo. Spain start their World Cup qualifying campaign next month, with an opening game against Georgia. (10.08.12)
