Norway announces World Cup squad list
Unsurprisingly, Norway is called up for this year's World Cup. The Norwegian team will return to the World Cup after 28 years of absence in 2026, with its best generation of players in history.
The Nordic team's return to the World Cup will be highlighted by the debut of Erling Haaland, Manchester City's top scorer, who promises to give opposing defenses a hard time in the competition.
Coach Stale Solbakken also trusted in Sorloth, from Atlético de Madrid, Oscar Bobb, from City and Schjelderup, Benfica's outstanding young promise.
