Andoni Gorosabel debuts in an Espanyol call-up
Gorosabel is included after suspended Omar El Hilali is ruled out, as Espanyol name their squad for the trip to Elche.
Espanyol head to Elche with Omar El Hilali unavailable due to suspension. As Mundo Deportivo reports, the good news for Manolo González is that Andoni Gorosabel is fit and makes his debut appearance in a first-team call-up.
Back in the squad
Gorosabel slots into the right-back option for the matchday group. The list also features Víctor Mullerat, an 18-year-old forward from the B team, who has scored two goals in his first two appearances under Sergio García.
Mundo Deportivo adds that Jofre Carreras remains out with a pubis problem. With those changes, the coach has put together a full squad covering all positions.
Full call-up list
Mundo Deportivo’s squad for the game includes:
- Fortuño, Dmitrovic, Llorenç Serred (goalkeepers)
- Gorosabel, Hartman, Riedel, Cabrera, Unai Nuñez, Drkusic, Hinojo, José Ángel (defenders)
- Urko, Edu Expósito, Pol Lozano, Moscardo, Bauza, Javi Hernández (midfielders)
- Roberto Fernández, Pere Milla, Bryan Zaragoza, Marcos Fernández, Calatrava, Dolan and Mullerat (forwards)
So Gorosabel gets his first selection, while Mullerat comes in on the back of goals, with the squad set for the RCDE Stadium fixture.
