SPAIN DELAY SQUAD DECISION

Posted by Webmaster 11

Spain have delayed naming their squad for this summer's European Championship until Saturday following the death of team doctor Genaro Borras on Thursday.

Coach Luis Aragones had initially been set to announce his 23-man party for the tournament on Friday, but that has now been put back a day due to the death of Borras, who passed away at the age of 62 after a long illness.

Although the majority of the Spain squad is set to be as expected, it has been reported that Aragones may make a couple of surprise selections with uncapped duo Santi Cazorla and Sergio Garcia, of Villarreal and Real Zaragoza, possibly in line for call-ups.

However, Real Madrid captain Raul, Spain's record goalscorer, and Barcelona youngster Bojan Krkic both look likely to miss out on the trip to Austria and Switzerland.
