Spain U17 coach Julen Guerrero has explained calling up Orlando City's Alejandro Granados to his Euros squd.

Granados qualifies for Spain, though was born and raised in the US.

Guerrero told AS: "That's how it is. The Federation is very attentive to these things and it is a case that we will see more and more. There are many kids who can play with Spain who, due to life circumstances, their parents going to live abroad, for studies or whatever, have to go abroad.

"And the Federation is doing a meticulous job trying to control the maximum number of players. In the case of Granados we have followed him a lot. In the US he has shown a great level and it was time to see him with the rest of the group.

"For a country to want a boy to play for them is to some extent normal. Each one wants the best for himself and that no great player escapes him. The important thing is that when someone is called up, be honest, to give him continuity and not for a specific moment or because another team wants him, but to treat him well, so that the federation that chooses him knows how to progress and that the boys don't feel abandoned.

"Those steps must be measured well. If I were a player that is the treatment I would like to receive."
