Callejon has Higuain's departure to thank for Spain call-up
This follows a two-year wait for Callejon, who will now be with the squad being assembled for the qualifiers against Italy and Albania.
The 29-year-old's history with La Furia Roja hasn’t been an easy one, often being dropped in favour of the many scintillating talents that Spain have at their disposal. Last season wasn’t easy on Calleti, either, seeing as he was asked to play second fiddle to Higuain, scoring only 7 goals in 38 games.
Now that the Argentine is gone, Callejon is only two goals short of last season’s total… and still has 30 days to equal it.
