May 25, 2021 Sergio Ramos Left Out Of Spain Squad For Euro 2020

Sergio Ramos has been left out of Spain boss Luis Enrique's Euro 2020 squad.

Real Madrid centre-back Ramos, 35, has been struggling with injury and has only played one game since the end of March.

His absence means there are no players from Real Madrid picked by Enrique for this summer's delayed tournament.

Manchester City defender Aymeric Laporte had his switch from France to Spain approved by Fifa recently and he makes the 24-man squad.

He is one of 10 players from the Premier League picked by Enrique, including Brighton keeper Robert Sanchez, Leeds United defender Diego Llorente and Wolves forward Adama Traore.

Ramos played for Spain in World Cup qualifiers in March when he was substituted during a draw with Greece and came on late in a win over Kosovo.

Since then, his only appearance for Real Madrid came in a Champions League semi-final second-leg defeat by Chelsea on 5 May.

That outing was only his fifth for the Bernabeu club this year.

Enrique could have picked a 26-man squad instead of the usual 23 after Uefa brought in the change to lessen the load on players after a club season compressed because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The tournament is taking place between 11 June and 11 July, having been delayed by a year because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Spain are in Group E along with Poland, Slovakia and Sweden.
