Man Utd keeper De Gea axed from Spain squad

Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea has been dropped by Spain coach Luis Enrique with Brentford's David Raya recalled.

De Gea played the entirety of United's 1-0 defeat against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday night, a result which dumped them out of the Champions League at the last-16 stage.

He was Spain's starter at a disappointing 2018 World Cup, where they crashed out in the round of 16, before becoming backup to Unai Simon, who helped them reach the semi-finals of the European Championship last year.

The 26-year-old Raya was born in Barcelona but has played in England for several years. He was at Blackburn before joining Brentford in 2019.

Raya will likely be third-choice goalkeeper behind Athletic Bilbao's Simon and Robert Sanchez of Brighton.
