Madrid, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 21st May, 2018 ) :Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata was left out of Spain's World Cup squad, announced on Monday. Morata paid the price for a disappointing debut season in the Premier League as Spain coach Julen Lopetegui picked Iago Aspas and Rodrigo Moreno up front, along with Atletico Madrid's Diego Costa.

"The decision is always difficult because of the talent of the players we have," Lopetegui said. "We have opted for three other players who had different assets and including four players up front was not something we wanted to do." Two more Chelsea players also missed out as Marcos Alonso and Cesc Fabregas were not included in the 23-man group.
