Ecuador Names Its 23-Man Squad For World Cup 2014: Segundo Castillo Makes Roster Despite Injury

Ecuador National Team Head Coach Reinaldo Rueda has named his 23-man squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup.

The biggest headline is that Segundo Castillo has been included in the squad despite picking up an injury over the weekend in a friendly against Mexico. Team doctors hope that Castillo will be fully recovered in 3 weeks. Whether or not Ecuador will still be in the tournament by then, we’ll have to wait and see since they’re in a tough group along with France, Switzerland and Honduras.

Goalkeepers: Maximum Banguera, Adrian Bone, Alexander Domínguez

Defenders: Frickson Erazo, Jorge Guagua, Oscar Bagiii, Gabriel Achilier, Juan Carlos Paredes, Walter Ayoví

Midfielders: Carlos Gruezo, Renato Ibarra, Christian Noboa, Segundo Alejandro Castillo, Luis Fernando Saritama, Antonio Valencia, Edison Mendez, Fidel Martinez

Forwards: Joao Rojas, Felipe Caicedo, Jefferson Montero, Jaime Ayoví Corozo, Enner Valencia, Michael Arroyo
