Spain have unveiled the players’ jersey numbers for the upcoming World Cup.
There are some surprises here. Robert Sanchez, who is not going to be the first-choice goalkeeper, wears no. 1, while Pedri is given no. 26 despite his prominent role at the national team. And why does Marco Asensio wear no. 10? Difficult to understand.
Eric Garcia is given no. 3, Sergio Busquets no. 5, Gavi no. 9, Ferran Torres no. 11, Jordi Alba no. 18 and Ansu Fati no. 25.
Spain will face Costa Rica, Germany and Japan in their World Cup group
