FIFA World Cup 2022 Squads

Andrew Hendrie:

The 2022 FIFA World Cup is just around the corner and nations have begun to finalise their squads for the biggest prize in sport.

FIFA’s deadline for each country to name their final 26-man squad is November 13. Over the next few days, every nation’s squad will be released.

Brazil are the favourites to win what would be a record sixth World Cup, while Lionel Messi is bidding to win his first World Cup for Argentina. Cristiano Ronaldo will also be hoping to lead Portugal to maiden World Cup glory.

France are the holders, but no nation has won consecutive World Cups since 1958-62.
