Wolves defender Otto named in Spain squad

The 24-year-old full-back is yet to earn a full cap.

Uncapped Wolves defender Jonny Otto has been named in Luis Enrique’s Spain squad to face Wales and England.

The 24-year-old full-back, playing for Wolves on loan from Atletico Madrid, has played for Spain at several youth levels but despite getting one previous senior call-up, in 2015, he is yet to earn a full cap.

Otto’s selection comes just a few days after he scored his first Wolves goal in the 2-0 win over Southampton on Saturday.

Otto is one a number of changes for Enrique, who has also brought in Dortmund forward Paco Alcacer, Real Betis defender Marc Bartra and Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke, but the coach continues to leave out Barcelona left-back Jordi Alba.

There is a strong Premier League presence in the squad besides Otto, thanks largely to Chelsea quartet Kepa Arrizabalaga, Cesar Azpilicueta, Marcos Alonso, and Alvaro Morata – with the latter keeping his place ahead of Diego
Costa despite scoring only one goal this season.

Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea is also included in the 23-man squad.

Spain play Wales in Cardiff on October 11 and England in Seville four days later.
