About Uruguay

Snapshot of Uruguay's 2026 squad and outlook.

Uruguay, two-time World Cup champions (1930, 1950) and one of South America's most storied footballing nations, arrive at 2026 under the mercurial Marcelo Bielsa with a squad blending youth and experience. Liverpool's Darwin Núñez provides explosive forward threat, while Real Madrid's Federico Valverde - one of the world's best box-to-box midfielders - gives the Celeste genuine quality throughout. Group H against Spain, Saudi Arabia, and Cape Verde is challenging but entirely manageable for a side of Uruguay's pedigree. La Celeste's legendary fighting spirit - their semi-final run at South Africa 2010 still lives long in memory - makes them one of the tournament's most compelling storylines.
