Koke hoping for World Cup chance

Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke hopes to be given the chance to feature for Spain at this summer's World Cup.

Atletico Madrid midfielder Koke is hopeful that he will be given the chance to feature for Spain at this summer's World Cup.

The 22-year-old played no part in La Roja's 5-1 defeat to Netherlands in their Group B opener on Friday, but has been tipped to feature in Wednesday's clash with Chile.

"I'm relaxed. Proud, given all that I'm doing and I really want to win things," he said in an interview with Adidas.

"I want to have a big role in this World Cup, should I get the chance to play and help my teammates, who are desperate to lift the trophy again."

Koke helped Atletico win their first La Liga title since 1996 last term.
