With just over three weeks remaining until the 2026 World Cup kicks off across the USA, Canada, and Mexico, managers of all 48 competing nations are putting the finishing touches on their preparations. One critical task still pending for many is submitting their final squad lists to FIFA. Each manager must name a 26-man squad, with final lists due by June 1.
Some teams have already announced their final squads, while others have named only provisional groups. A few have yet to reveal any squad at all, though they still have time to make their decisions. England boss Thomas Tuchel is among those with last-minute calls to make. Here is every player confirmed to play at this summer's World Cup so far.
