The Swedish national team has officially announced its squad for the upcoming 2026 World Cup.
Details: The main attacking force for the Scandinavians from the Premier League—Viktor Gyökeres and Alexander Isak—are both fit and ready to spearhead Sweden's offense on North American soil. Their inclusion in the roster puts to rest any doubts about Sweden's attacking power going into the group stage.
However, the squad announcement did not come without some high-profile absences. It has been confirmed that Barcelona prodigy Roony Bardghji will miss the global tournament. Despite sky-high expectations from fans, the talented winger has not made the final squad and will not travel to the World Cup.
It’s worth noting that at the World Cup, Sweden will face Tunisia, the Netherlands, and Japan in the group stage.
Reminder: Barcelona midfielder Gavi has made his pick for the upcoming World Cup winner.
