Olympic Games 2012 - The squad

Athletic Bilbao's San José has also withdrawn from the squad as he is suffering from chickenpox, and Valencia's Víctor Ruíz was called up instead. Víctor, Joel, Illarramendi and Alvaro Vázquez were left out in the end though, and all four will be first replacements if anybody else drops out in the meantime. (14.07.12)

Barcelona's Thiago has pulled out of the squad as he has been unable to recover from an injury in time, and he has been replaced by Real Sociedad's Illarramendi. (06.07.12)

Luis Milla named a provisional 22 man squad today for the upcoming Olympic Games. Jordi Alba was a surprise inclusion after his recent success in the European championships, although his team-mates Javi Martínez and Mata were always going to be called up as two of the three over-age players, together with Atlético's Adrián. Milla has a couple of warm-up games against Senegal and Mexico before deciding which four players he will leave out of his final 18 man squad. (05.07.12)
