Türkiye will make a rare appearance at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, but they have two of the most promising young players on the planet in their squad. We look at why Arda Güler and Kenan Yildiz can give Vincenzo Montella’s side hope of making an impact this summer.
Türkiye are readying themselves for their first World Cup since 2002. Considering they finished third in that tournament, it’s quite surprising it was their only World Cup appearance since 1954, until now.
They came through the UEFA play-offs by beating Romania and Kosovo to book their place in the United States, Mexico and Canada, and are ready to compete again as they did in Japan and South Korea 24 years ago.
The nation formerly known as Turkey sent a letter of request to the United Nations to be referred to as Türkiye in 2022, partly to distance itself from the bird of the same name.
Another name the Türkiye men’s national team have been known as, when it comes to major tournaments anyway, is ‘dark horse’, due to a belief that they can do as they did in 2002 and go further than perhaps many expect them to. There is seemingly no getting away from names related to animals.
One reason why Vincenzo Montella’s side are being tipped to do well this summer by many is a pair of young lions who look primed to produce on the biggest international stage.
