Spain has announced its squad for the 2026 World Cup.

In the squad of 26 players, there is no place for Real Madrid players. Neither Dani Carvajal, Dean Huijsen, nor Álvaro Carrera were called up for the World Cup.

As expected, there is also no Barcelona player Fermín López, who suffered a foot injury at the end of the season.

The Spain squad includes their key star Lamine Yamal and three newly minted Premier League champions from the Arsenal team.
