    Andres Iniesta & Sergio Ramos Return To Spain Squad For World Cup
    Qualifiers

    Twenty-four players have been called up for La Seleccion's World Cup
    qualifiers with Armenia and Bosnia & Herzegovina..

    Oct 2, 2009 5:00:03 PM

    Vicente Del Bosque has named his Spain squad to face Armenia on
    October 10 and Bosnia & Herzegovina four days later.

    The most notable selections are Barcelona's Andres Iniesta and Real
    Madrid defender Sergio Ramos, both of whom have recently returned from
    injury for their clubs.

    Ramos' team-mate Alvaro Arbeloa is unavailable through a knee injury
    and has been replaced by Athletic Bilbao right-back Andoni
    Iraola. Osasuna defender Nacho Monreal has also been called up again,
    having made his debut earlier this year against Macedonia.

    Spain have already qualified for the World Cup in South Africa next
    year, but are aiming to keep their 100 per cent record in the group
    intact. La Furia Roja have only conceded two goals in their eight
    matches so far.

    Goalkeepers: Iker Casillas (Real Madrid), Pepe Reina (Liverpool),
    Diego Lopez (Villarreal).

    Defenders: Raul Albiol (Real Madrid), Joan Capdevila (Villarreal),
    Andoni Iraola (Athletic Bilbao), Carlos Marchena (Valencia), Nacho
    Monreal (Osasuna), Gerard Pique (Barcelona), Carles Puyol (Barcelona),
    Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid).

    Midfielders: Xabi Alonso (Real Madrid), Sergio Busquets (Barcelona),
    Santi Cazorla (Villarreal), Cesc Fabregas (Arsenal), Andres Iniesta
    (Barcelona), Xavi (Barcelona), Albert Riera (Liverpool), Marcos Senna
    (Villarreal).

    Forwards: Daniel Guiza (Fenerbahce), Juan Mata (Valencia), David Silva
    (Valencia), Fernando Torres (Liverpool), David Villa (Valencia).
