Many big names will be watching the Russia 2018 World Cup on their couches and big screens as more countries named their squad for the Mundial in Russia.

The latest set of ‘casualties’ are Chelsea quartet of Cesc Fabregas, striker Alvaro Morata, winger Pedro Rodriguez and wing-back Marcos Alonso who all have been left out of Spain’s squad for the 2018 World Cup released on Monday.

Club-mate Cesar Azpilicueta has got the nod and is the Blues’ sole representative in manager Julen Lopetegui’s 23-man squad for the tournament.

Former Chelsea star Diego Costa, who was ineffectively replaced by Morata at Stamford Bridge, is in the squad.

Arsenal defender Nacho Monreal is included, but team-mate Hector Bellerin misses out.

Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea and Manchester City playmaker David Silva are the other Premier League representatives in the squad.

Spain will tackle Portugal, Iran and Morocco in Group B, with their first match against Cristiano Ronaldo and company taking place on June 15th in Sochi.
