In a historic first, Spain’s national football team, affectionately known as *La Roja*, will head to the FIFA World Cup without a single player from Real Madrid in their 24-member squad. This unprecedented decision was announced on Monday, marking a significant shift in the team’s composition. The squad, announced by head coach Luis de la Fuente, includes emerging talents like Barcelona’s Lamine Yamal and Athletic Bilbao’s Nico Williams, both of whom were called up despite ongoing injury concerns.
The exclusion of Real Madrid players—such as midfield maestro Luka Modrić or defensive stalwart Antonio Rüdiger—signals a new strategic direction for Spain, emphasizing youth and emerging talent over established stars. De la Fuente’s squad places a strong focus on players from La Liga clubs, with 16 representatives from Spain’s top division, while also including key figures from clubs abroad, such as Manchester City’s Rodri and Bayern Munich’s Alejandro Balde.
