The French national football team is once again one of the top favorites for the 2026 World Cup after securing a spot in the finals for the eighth consecutive year, and is aiming for a third world title.
FIFA's website stated on Wednesday that Les Bleus will feature a combination of experienced players and a talented young generation, led by Real Madrid's star striker, Kylian Mbappe.
They are looking forward to the World Cup, which will be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico , with the status of being one of the biggest powers in world football.
The national team coached by Didier Deschamps managed to secure a place in the final round, recording their 17th participation in the tournament's history.
FIFA notes that France has been one of the most consistent nations in the last nearly three decades, having appeared consistently since the 1998 World Cup.
The path to the 2026 World Cup is inseparable from Les Bleus' consistent performance in the international competition cycle.
After becoming finalists at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, the Blues maintained their position as one of Europe's top favorites.
In the final round draw, France was placed in Group I with Norway, Senegal and Iraq.
