Sevilla striker Alvaro Negredo has been called up to the Spain squad for their upcoming 2010 World Cup qualifiers away to Armenia and Bosnia.

FOOTBALL La Liga Sevilla Alvaro Negredo - 0

Coach Vicente del Bosque has already lost Valencia's David Villa to injury, and after the side's first training session Spanish media reported Fenerbahce forward Daniel Guiza was struggling with a knee complaint.

The uncapped Negredo, 24, joined Sevilla from Real Madrid in August for a reported fee of around 15 million euros and has made a quick impression, helping the Andalucians win their last seven consecutive games in all competitions.

Spain, who have already secured the top spot in Group Five and a place in the finals in South Africa, take on Armenia in Yerevan on October 10 and second-placed Bosnia in Zenica four days later.
