As good as it looks for the resurgent Thiago Alcántara at Liverpool and Fabián Ruiz at Paris Saint-Germain, it's as bad as it looks for Sergio Busquets and Koke Resurrección ahead of the date on Qatari soil. That is to say, the midfielder under Jürgen Klopp is once again crucial at Anfield and the club is gradually finding its feet, evolving, with the Spanish-Brazilian at the controls.
The former Napoli and Real Betis player is doing the same in Paris, alongside Ramos, who is also eligible for Luis Enrique's squad. And both have already been called up by Luis Enrique and can replace the Barça and Atletico midfielder, so why can't they be selected for Qatar? The choice of players to represent Spain at the World Cup in a month's time will undoubtedly be made by Luis Enrique, but there are reasons to at least wonder about these Spanish players.

Let's take it one at a time. Busquets occupies a very similar position and role in La Roja to that of Xavi Hernandez's Barca, and as you can see in the Barca team, he is weak, is being discussed and could even come out of the Blaugrana eleven against Villarreal in today's league game. As for Koke, he generates even more doubts, as he is injured, Atlético de Madrid is going from fall to fall, both in LaLiga and in the Champions League.
The midfielder has not proved himself irreplaceable this season either at the club or La Roja, so could he be dropped from the list? As for the two of them, Busquets and Koke, we believe Luis Enrique will give them a place, but the question is whether they deserve it or at least whether they deserve it more than Thiago and Fabián.
As we said, Thiago has recovered from injury and is already playing a key role in the midfield of the European runners-up and winners of almost everything in England last season; Fabián is already essential in the organisation and containment of Sergio Ramos's team in Paris, and he is so because he is in exceptional form.
