Spain’s head coach Montse Tome has called up most of the same 23 players who won the Women’s World Cup for their upcoming Nations League fixtures later this month. 15 players from the World Cup side have retained their places for Spain’s matches against Sweden and Switzerland. Jenni Hermoso, Ivana Andres, Irene Guerrero, Laia Codina, Alba Redondo, Salma Paralluelo, Rocio Galvez and Claudia Zornoza have not been selected. On Friday, 39 players – which included 21 out of the 23 World Cup-winning side – said they wanted further changes at the Royal Spanish Football...

“We are with Jenni in everything, and with all the players,” Tome added. “We believe the way to help them is to be close to them and listen to them. I am the most responsible, with my staff, and we believe the best way to protect her in this squad is this way. We count on Jenni, I have worked with her for five years, we also faced each other when I was a player.”Spain’s women’s team has had several disagreements in the past with the RFEF.

All members of ‘Las 15’ signed the statement in August, including the 12 players who were not recalled for the World Cup. Earlier on Monday, The RFEF released a statement declaring a “public commitment” to make “structural changes” in the federation. They had urged the players to come forward and join in on the changes being made.

Pressed on whether something had changed to ensure the players would return to the federation, Tome said: “We are all clear this has been a special situation, and everything produced these days has been something exceptional. The federation has worked to be able to speak to the players. We have listened to them. We are all part of this, and must have good communication. From today we are starting out on the Nations League, and very excited about this competition.
