Sergio Rico hails David de Gea, Iker Casillas

Sevilla goalkeeper Sergio Rico pays tribute to fellow Spain stoppers David de Gea and Iker Casillas ahead of La Roja's final Euro 2016 qualifier against Ukraine.

Sevilla goalkeeper Sergio Rico has paid tribute to the qualities of fellow Spain internationals David de Gea and Iker Casillas.

Casillas and De Gea will, barring injury, travel to Euro 2016 next summer as Spain's two main goalkeepers, but Rico is seemingly ahead of the challengers to go as the number three.

When questioned on his two international teammates, Rico discussed the qualities of both players, claiming that he would choose De Gea's ability with his feet and 'everything' from the "complete" Casillas.

"From David I [would] choose his passing game and his kicking game, which is fantastic", the Sevilla stopper told Goal.com. "From Iker I want all, basically. He is really complete, he is an experienced keeper, he knows how to act and he has good reflexes."

Rico is part of the Spain squad that will play their final Euro 2016 qualifier away to Ukraine on Monday evening.
