Bonmati, Putellas lead Spain as Hermoso overlooked for Euro 2025
Jenni Hermoso was left out of Spain's squad for next month's women's Euro 2025 on Tuesday, with two-time Ballon d'Or winners Aitana Bonmati and Alexia Putellas set to be key players for the world champions.
Coach Montse Tome included 11 members of the 2023 World Cup-winning squad.
But Tome has decided again not to call up experienced forward Hermoso.
She has insisted Hermoso's recent absence is a sporting decision.
Ex-football federation chief Luis Rubiales forcibly kissed Hermoso after the 2023 Women's World Cup final for which he was fined 10,800 euros ($11,670) for sexual assault, a sentence which is being appealed.
"I spoke with Jenni at the beginning of the year. We had a conversation. She came to the first FIFA matchday and didn't get many minutes," Tome told a press conference of Spain's all-time leading women's scorer, who plays for Mexican club Tigres.
"We've evaluated her year, we've spoken with her coach on several occasions, and we've done what we have to do to see what we need or don't need from the players," the coach continued.
La Roja play a friendly against Japan on June 27, and two days later will head to Switzerland.
They start their Euros campaign on July 3 against Portugal in Bern and will face Belgium and Italy on July 7 and 11.
