Atletico name Torres, Godin for ICC

While Juventus and Tottenham left a raft of Euro 2016 stars behind, Atleti are heading to Australia with a relatively strong squad
While Antoine Griezmann won't make the trip, Atletico Madrid have arguably announced the strongest squad for the Australian leg of the International Champions Cup.

Griezmann and Koke are the biggest omissions from Diego Simeone's 24-man squad for Atletico's trip to Melbourne, but with Fernando Torres, Gabi, Diego Godin and Jan Oblak included, the Champions League runners-up look to be much stronger than Juventus and Tottenham.

Atleti, who left Spain on Tuesday, will take on Tottenham on Friday at the MCG before facing A-League club Melbourne Victory in Geelong on Sunday.

Atletico Madrid's ICC squad in full:
Goalkeepers:Oblak, Carlos Marin, Bernabe
Defenders:Godin, Filipe, Savic, Lucas, Vrsaljko, Theo, Manquillo, Theo, Velazquez
Midfielders:Tiago, Saul, Oliver, Gabi, Thomas, Jota, Amath, Caio, Juan Moreno, Mensah
Attackers:Torres, Borre, Hector
