Ethnic composition of each Western European participating country in the World Cup

[Lisyonok]

Eastern European teams (Croatia, Poland, Serbia) are fully European in World Cup, as I know.

France could participate in African World Cup qualifications next time, instead of European.

Spain

5 Black/mixed-race, 19 ethnic Spaniards, 1 part-Dutch, 1 part-French

4 blacks: Ansu Fati (pure black, even born in Africa), Nicholas Williams Arthuer (parents from Ghana), Robert Lynch Sánchez (British* father, Spanish* mother. One has to be black) and Alejandro Balde (Guinean father, Dominican mother).

1 part-Dutch (Marco Asensio Willemsen).

1 pure French (Aymeric Laporte).

1 Gypsy (Carlos Busquets).

How did Laporte qualify to play for Spain then? I thought he had some Spanish-Basque ancestry?

Not sure what you mean. Do you now wonder how a foreigner plays in other national team? seriously?

I thought he had some Spanish-Basque ancestry?

Oh, I thought he did not, but it seems I was wrong
