Updated Spain squad for World Cup Finals Germany 2006:

Spain's La Furia Roja have lost Chelsea's Asier del Horno to injury, with Getafe's Mariano Pernia replacing him.

Del Horno damaged the area around his Achilles tendon in training in late May, and Spain's national team doctor Genaro Borras said the player would be out of action for around three weeks, which ruled him out of the World Cup Finals.

Argentine-born Pernia, 22, obtained dual-nationality with Spain less than two months ago, at the end of April, and was the joint top scorer for Getafe with 10 goals in the Spanish Primera Liga last season
