Qatar| With FIFA’s flagship event heading to the Middle East in November, GOAL takes a look at how 32 expectant nations will be kitted out
After waiting four-and-a-half years for the World Cup finals to roll around again, a global gathering of football’s elite is almost upon us once more in Qatar. There will be plenty of superstar performers on show in the Middle East, with the likes of Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Harry Kane set to strut their stuff on the game’s grandest stage.
FIFA’s flagship event puts the most prestigious of sporting prizes up for grabs, with all of those involved taking aim at a place in the final on December 18.
Thirty-two nations will start out in that quest when the group stage gets underway and GOAL brings you a full rundown of the kits that will be donned by the cream of European, South American, Asian, African and North American crops.
The release of the England kits has been delayed due to the national mourning period after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
