The FIFA World Cup 2026 is expected to be more than football’s biggest tournament as it could also mark the international farewell of several iconic players. Argentina’s Lionel Messi returns after winning the 2022 World Cup and may make his final appearance on football’s grandest stage. Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo, still chasing a World Cup title, enters what could be his last opportunity to complete his remarkable career. Croatia captain Luka Modric aims for one final memorable campaign, while Germany’s Thomas Müller hopes to end his World Cup journey on a high. Brazil star Neymar is also expected to feature in what could be his World Cup swansong. (PC: X, MSN, Flipboard & The Independent)
