AVB fears Spurs striker Soldado won't make World Cup

Sacked Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas doesn't expect Roberto Soldado to make the Spain World Cup squad.

Villas-Boas brought Soldado to Spurs last August for a club-record fee of £26 million but the Spaniard has struggled in front of goal this season.

He said: "I hope Soldado can go to the World Cup but it will be very difficult. He is a great striker and a great person, but he has not been called up to the last few squads by Vicente del Bosque."
