What to expect from France at World Cup 2026
Paris Saint-Germain's sensational UEFA Champions League double triumph has further increased the focus on French football and their international players.
Those who ply their trade at PSG itself, such as Ousmane Dembele, Bradley Barcola, Lucas Hernandez and Desire Doue, as well as others who entertain the footballing masses in a multitude of top leagues: Kylian Mbappe (Real Madrid), Marcus Thuram (Inter Milan), Adrien Rabiot (AC Milan), Michael Olise (Bayern Munich), Rayan Cherki (Man City), William Saliba (Arsenal). All those dazzling stars will align, as they go in search of national glory at World Cup 2026 and you could be there to watch it all unfold.
France have been lucky enough to field a glittering array of talent throughout the years of course. During their two previous triumphant World Cup campaigns of 1998 and 2018, the likes of Zinedine Zidane, Didier Deschamps, Marcel Desailly, N'Golo Kante, Paul Pogba and Antoine Griezmann all helped pull the strings and guide them to success.
As well as capturing the main prize twice before, Les Bleus came within a whisker of further global glory in both 2006 and 2022, when they finished runners-up.
