About Panama
Snapshot of Panama's 2026 squad and outlook.
Panama make their third consecutive World Cup appearance in 2026, cementing their status as a genuine CONCACAF force after a rapid rise in Central American football. Los Canaleros, coached by Danish-born Thomas Christiansen, qualified with a mix of MLS players and Central American-based talent that reflects the growing depth of Panamanian football. Group L against England, Croatia, and Ghana is their toughest group in three World Cup cycles, but Panama's physical, hard-running style makes them competitive opponents who can take points from anyone. Their passionate support base and the national pride invested in each World Cup appearance makes Panama one of the tournament's most colourful participants.
