Spain is an all-time dominating European football country all over the world. The Spanish side is always famous for their great passing skills. The 2010 FIFA World Cup champion Spain has such upcoming stars as Ansu Fati, Ferran Torres, Pedri, Gavi, and Brahim Diaz. On the one hand, the Spanish team has many future stars, on the other hand, they have many veteran footballers like Sergio Busquets, Cesar Azpilicueta, and Thiago Alcantara. So we can say that the Spanish team has the most well-balanced squad in this 2022 World Cup. Let’s take a look at the Spanish entire 2022 squad for the World Cup.
Coach
The head coach of the Spanish national side is Luis Enrique. Enrique was selected a few years ago as manager for the Spanish national team. Indeed, Enrique has not won Spain any major titles as a manager but the skills he possesses can return the Spanish national team to their lost glory on Qatar soil. He is still rebuilding the Spanish squad from scratch and all Spanish football fans are eager to see if he can return Spain to its former glory in Qatar World Cup.
Goalkeepers
Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Unai Simon will be the 1st choice for Enrique’s squad to play on Qatar soil. This young footballer has the potential to keep his team on another level.
While Manchester United’s David De Gea and Brighton’s Robert Sanchez are those two giant Spanish goalkeepers who can dominate any opponent striker with their skills. Brentford’s David Raya will be the other Spanish who can give their squad a promising start.

Defenders
Enrique’s biggest dilemma with the Spanish defense is whether veteran Paris Saint Germain’s defender Sergio Ramos will be in the final squad. He struggled with major injuries last season. But he has found himself in a new groove in the recent past.
While the other Spanish great defenders like Cesar Azpilicueta, Dani Carvajal, Jordi Alba, and Aymeric Laporte are at their best form in their careers. So we can believe those 4 great defenders will also go with their squad in Qatar. Another Spanish player Eric Garcia is also likely to set foot on Qatar soil, with Inigo Martinez proving a reliable option. Villarreal’s Pau Torres and Barcelona’s Marcos Alonso are also likely to travel to Qatar with his team for playing in the 2022 World Cup.

Spain national team manager Enrique may have to let go of several homegrown veterans as his World Cup squad has so many midfield options that he is in a quandary over who to let go of in Qatar.
But we all crazy football fans believe that the main 6 Spanish key midfielders like Thiago, Sergio Busquets, Rodri, Pedri, Koke, and Gavi will be the part of Spanish World Cup squad in Qatar. On the other side, Carlos Soler and Sergio Roberto are those 2 midfielders who can give their squad a promising performance.

On the other hand, talented forwards like Marcos Asensio, Ansu Fati, and Rodrigo will be looking to give their best when given the opportunity, while youngsters like Jeremy Pino, Nico Williams, and Brian Gill could usher in a new era in world football for Spain by winning the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
