About Norway

Snapshot of Norway's 2026 squad and outlook.

Norway arrive at the 2026 FIFA World Cup with one of the most explosive striker-playmaker partnerships in world football - Manchester City's Erling Haaland, the most prolific scorer in Premier League history, and Arsenal captain Martin Ødegaard as the creative fulcrum. The Viking warriors' return to the World Cup stage ends a 28-year absence since France 1998, and there is genuine excitement about what this Norwegian generation can achieve on the biggest stage. Group I against France, Senegal, and Iraq is a challenging draw, but Norway have the firepower to beat anyone on their day. If Haaland stays fit and Ødegaard delivers, Norway could be a genuine dark-horse contender for the knockout rounds.
