World Cup
FIFA is considering increasing the number of appearances at the World Cup to 26 players
FIFA is considering increasing the number of national team appearances at the World Cup from 23 to 26. The final decision will be made at the final in Qatar at the end of March.
FIFA is considering a number of changes for the World Cup, such as staging it every two years, which is opposed by a large part of the footballing public.
One of the changes that Gianni Infantino wants to implement right away is increasing the teams’ missions from 23 to 26 players.
The decision is expected to be made at the 72nd Congress of the World Football Association on March 31 in Doha, with the draw for the group stage of the World Cup taking place a day later.
Of course, it has to be clarified whether these three players are on the bench during the missions or whether they come out of the game.
