- Lionel Messi
The Argentinian legend finally looks likeQatar 2022 World Cup is going to be his last chance of winning the biggest of all. He was the top assist and scorer in 2021 at the Copa America. He looks more balanced and at the helm is Lionel Scaloni, the pragmatic coach. A strong hope is Messi will make a difference in Qatar 2022.
- Cristiano Ronaldo
Cristiano Ronaldo’s debut was in 2004. Ronaldo’s games helped Portugal to accomplish five World cups and five European Championships, scoring in 186 appearances 115 goals. Portugal sees him as a god. In the 2026 World Cup, he will be 41 and now it is a stretch to think he will be at the top level.
- Luka Modric
Modric received the 2018 award for his brilliant performances. A four-time champion’s league winner is 36 years and shows he has the power to handle a key role in the Champions League last month making a comeback victory over PSG. He will sign an extension for one-year to remain next season at the Bernabeu.
- Karim Benzema
Benzema is the current Ballon d’Or holder, but is making a great difference for the lost time. He was next to Ronaldo for many years. He played in the 2018 World Cup in Les Blueus, and is back in the fold. He is desperate to win the last big trophy.
- Neymar Jnr
Neymar is arguably one of the most popular South-American football players of all time. The Selecao star, who is also third on Brazil’s all-time scorers, is the player most fans want to watch during the world cup. This is because Neymar is an intelligent player, with impressive speed, technical ability, and an eye for the goal. Not only that, but he is also a team player.
- Thiago Silva
Thiago Silva at the Qatar 2022 World Cup will be 38 and betting against him in December Brazil’s backline is going to be amazing. Any Chelsea fan admires him to be the center-back Rolls Royce.
- Kylian Mbappe

Mbappe is definitely one of the top stars to watch out for in Qatar 2022 World Cup
- Son Heung-min
The Tottenham forward is undoubtedly Asian football’s biggest star and he will be carrying South Korea’s hopes in a tight-looking Group H. Son shared the Premier League Golden Boot last season with Liverpool’s Salah, despite not taking penalties for Spurs.
He has netted 35 times in 104 internationals, including the second goal of the Koreans’ stunning 2018 win over Germany which dumped the reigning champions out in the group stage.
Son has not always been at his best this term, but a recent run of seven goals in seven games for club and country shows he has lost none of his potency.
- Harry Kane
World cup Squads for each team
Harry Kane could become England’s all-time leading scorer at the World Cup after reaching 51 goals for the Three Lions — just two behind record holder Wayne Rooney. The Tottenham Hotspur star has never won a major trophy with club or country but his predatory instincts make him one of the world’s top strikers. Keeping Kane fit and firing will be Southgate’s top priority in Qatar 2022 World Cup .
- Luis Suarez & Edinson Cavani
This duo in 2022 will see their fourth successive World Cup, and it is their last. They had successful club careers and enjoyed it incredibly.
- Virgil van Dijk
