Spain drop Real Madrid starter and two others from qualifiers 👀 | OneFootball

Spain will play this Saturday (15th) against Georgia in a key match to try to secure qualification for the 2026 World Cup.

Real Madrid's starting defender, Huijsen, however, was cut from the game, as were Samu and De Frutos.

The RFEF (Spanish Federation) communicated to UEFA the final list of squad numbers for the duel in Tbilisi, and it does not include the Real Madrid defender or his two teammates.

According to The Athletic, Huijsen will undergo an examination after feeling discomfort in his groin.

Luis de la Fuente will count on Laporte, Cubarsí, and Vivian for the center of defense in the clash with Georgia.

Spain needs to win and hope that Turkey does not beat Bulgaria to secure their ticket to the 2026 World Cup.

The 23 called up for Georgia vs. Spain

David Raya, Barrios, Grimaldo, Vivian, Llorente, Mikel Merino, Ferran, Fabián Ruiz, Borja Iglesias, Dani Olmo, Yeremy, Pedro Porro, Remiro, Laporte, Cubarsí, Baena, Fornals, Zubimendi, Fermín, Aleix García, Oyarzabal, Cucurella, and Unai Simón.
