Spain goalkeeper David de Gea has been ruled out of the ongoing World Cup in Brazil after suffering a hip injury during training.
Spain will however be unable to call in a replacement for De Gea as the deadline to replace injured players elapsed on June 11.
Real Madrid keeper Iker Casillas, who was culpable in three of the goals in the 5-1 loss to Netherlands, is now set to start Spain’s next match against Chile where failure to win would all but end Spain’s World Cup campaign.
