MADRID (AP) — Barcelona teenager Pau Cubarsí and midfielders Marcos Llorente and Aleix García were dropped from Spain’s final 26-man squad for the European Championship on Friday.

The 17-year-old Cubarsí impressed with his club and debuted for Spain this season. García was a key force behind Girona qualifying for the Champions League for the first time, and Atletico Madrid’s versatile Llorente has been a regular for Spain.

Coach Luis de la Fuente, however, stuck with Real Betis forward Ayoze Pérez, who is with Spain for the first time, as well as 21-year-old Barcelona midfielder Fermín López.

Spain is aiming for a record-extending fourth European Championship. It is in Group B with Italy, Albania and Croatia.
