Iago Aspas has been drafted into Luis Enrique's Spain squad ahead of the first two Uefa Nations League matches against England in Wembley and Croatia at home in Elche next Tuesday. 

The Galician player replaces Diego Costa after the Spanish FA (RFEF) confirmed that the Atleti striker won't form part of the squad due to "family reasons".

The Celta forward scored his first goal of the season last Saturday as Celta beat Atleti 2-0, the only of the selected Spanish strikers to have been called up (Morata, Rodrigo and Costa) for the Uefa Nations League matches.
