No Thiago in the Spain squad...
Liverpool star snubbed as Luis Enrique reveals Spain’s 26-man World Cup squadLiverpool midfielder Thiago will not be going to the World Cup with Spain.Manager Luis Enrique has instead opted for Sergio Busquets, Rodri, Gavi, Pedri, Carlos Soler, Koke, Marcos Llorente, Pablo Sarabia, and Dani Olmo in midfield.It was revealed last month that Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea would not be going to Qatar.
He was not included in Enrique’s 55-man squad submitted to Fifa, with the former Barcelona boss favouring five other ‘keepers ahead of the Red Devils man. Although Thiago has struggled with injuries since joining Liverpool in 2020, many expected him to be going to the World Cup.He has been limited to seven Premier League appearances this term after he missed five matches due to a hamstring problem.
In his previous two seasons, Thiago has only played 24 and 25 league matches, thanks to his fitness issues.“We will have the same philosophy as in recent years.”“There is no doubt what you are going to see in the World Cup. We will try to control the game, dominate and create more than our opponents.”Cucurella shone for Brighton last term before making the £62million move to Stamford Bridge this summer.
“Look at Cucurella in there with Xhaka. He doesn’t move at all. He just holds Xhaka, there’s nothing at all from him!”
