Injured Castillo included in Ecuador squad

The Al Hilal midfielder, 32, suffered the injury in his side's 3-1 loss to Mexico in a friendly on Saturday and needs up to three weeks to recover.

Castillo needs 15 to 21 days to recover from the strained ligament, ruling him out of their Group E opener against Switzerland.

Manchester United winger Antonio Valencia is the star of Reinaldo Rueda's squad, who face England in a friendly on Wednesday.
