About Ecuador
Snapshot of Ecuador's 2026 squad and outlook.
Ecuador bring one of South America's most exciting midfielders to World Cup 2026 in Chelsea powerhouse Moisés Caicedo, whose physicality, range of passing, and energy make him one of the premier midfielders in the world. Argentine coach Sébastien Beccacece has provided tactical sophistication to La Tri, while the continued involvement of legendary striker Enner Valencia - Ecuador's all-time top scorer - adds proven big-game experience. Group E pits Ecuador against Germany, Ivory Coast, and debutants Curaçao - a group where they should compete for second place. Ecuador's 2006 run to the round of 16 remains their best; a repeat or better in 2026 is a realistic goal.
