The Socceroos will have one less worry at the World Cup after Real Madrid midfielder Isco was overlooked for Spain's World Cup Squad.
Spain coach Vicente del Bosque has announced his 30-man provisional squad for this summer's World Cup in Brazil, with Real Madrid's Alvaro Arbeloa and Isco as two of the most notable absentees.
Isco has struggled to find his best form in the second half of the season after initially impressing at Madrid, which has now cost him his place in Del Bosque's roster, while Arbeloa has lost his spot to Dani Carvajal.
Meanwhile, Iker Casillas has made the cut regardless of his limited amount of playing time at Madrid this season, while Thiago Alcantara and Fernando Llorente have both made it, too.
Other surprising callups include Alberto Moreno, Ander Iturraspe and Koke.
Del Bosque will announce his final squad on May 25.
Spain meet Netherlands, Chile and Australia in Group B at the World Cup.
