Will France win the 2026 World Cup?
France are among the favorites to win the World Cup and have a talented squad with many of the best players from Europe, led by talented and focused Real Madrid captain and La Liga top scorer Kylian Mbappe.
Paris Saint-Germain top scorer Mbappe is the leader in Group D of the UEFA World Cup qualifiers, which also includes Ukraine, Iceland – the same team that stopped France from winning, as the hosts held it to a draw – and Azerbaijan.
His teammate Ousmane Dembele won the 2025 Ballon d’Or after playing an inspirational role in PSG’s Champions League victory alongside fellow internationals Lucas Hernandez, Warren Zaire-Emery, Bradley Barcola and Desire Doue.
A 1998 World Cup and EURO 2000 winner playing for France as a midfielder, manager Didier Deschamps will step down after 14 years following the final, guiding his country to the 2018 World Cup, the 2021 Nations League title and the EURO 2016 final.
England, Argentina and Spain are some of France’s possible rivals to win the title if they want to give Deschamps a nightmare.
