Liverpool's left-back Jose Enrique insisted he deserves a place in Spain's national squad ahead of next year's European football championship, in comments published Monday.
"I think I deserve a chance," he was quoted as saying by leading Spanish sports daily Marca, while acknowledging that Valencia player Jordi Alba "is doing a very good job" in the left-back role for Spain.
"I think that just for the fact that I've managed to play for a team like Liverpool, they should be thinking of me" for the Spain squad, added the Spaniard, who moved to Liverpool from Newcastle in August.
