There will be superstars aplenty at the 2026 World Cup, with all-time greats Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo potentially featuring in their final tournament, alongside a host of established players in their prime.
Among those in their prime are Bukayo Saka, Lamine Yamal and Michael Olise.Â
Saka has been a mainstay in the England side since making his debut in 2020, and now with a Premier League title under his belt, he will be hoping to take the World Cup by storm and further establish himself as one of England’s key players.
Although still just 18, Yamal is already far beyond a prospect. In many eyes, he is among the best players in the world right now, and after a standout Euro 2024 campaign in which he helped guide Spain to the title, expectations are high for another major tournament starring role.
