Jenni Hermoso, Spain's all-time top scorer, has been omitted from the squad for the upcoming European Championships in Switzerland. Manager Montse Tome made 12 changes from the World Cup-winning team, citing competition for places as the reason for Hermoso's absence. Other notable absentees include goalkeeper Misa Rodriguez and players who are injured. Despite these omissions, Spain's squad remains strong with ten players from Barcelona. Tome expresses confidence in her team's capabilities, aiming to seize the title as they have never won the Euros before.
I understand Jenni is an important player, but competition for places is the reason she missed out. It's hard to pick 23 players.
Even without Hermoso, Spain's squad looks incredibly strong, with 10 players from Barcelona included among those selected for the finals.
I feel the team has the capacity to go all the way. That’s the objective, to compete to win, but football is unpredictable.
We have assessed Hermoso’s performances for Tigres and spoken with her coach about her situation.
