Squad list:Beckham and Helguera out

There are no novelties in the squad list for Sunday's match in Barcelona. Beckham -suspended- and Helguera -injured- don't make the list, their spots being taken by youth system players Sergio and Casilla. Diarra, who was suspended last week, returns.

Twenty players will leave at 7 pm CET this evening for Barcelona to face Espanyol in Montjuic tomorrow. Capello will be able to count with all his men save Beckham, who is suspended, and Helguera, who is still injured.

The defender hasn't made the squad list in the end despite having started doing field work exercises this week for the first time since he was injured on 21 November in the match against Olympique Lyonnais. His place has been taken by youth system player Sergio, who has been included in every squad list since the match against Dynamo Kyiv in Ukraine. Casilla has also made the list as the team's third keeper.


Beckham hasn't been able to make the list due to having been booked five times this season, but he will be back on the team for Wednesday's League match against Recreativo Huelva. The week's three injured players, namely Roberto Carlos, Ronaldo and Guti have recovered and will travel to Barcelona.
