The countdown for the start of the 2026 FIFA World Cup is well and truly on, with co-hosts Mexico kicking off the tournament against South Africa in a repeat of the 2010 opener on June 11.

In the meantime, a gradual trickling of squad announcements will arrive, doubtless enraging and encouraging supporters.

Some have gone down the provisional route, with national team managers having until June 1 to submit their final 26-man squads before they’re officially published by FIFA the following day.

Here’s a list of all the confirmed 2026 World Cup squads.
