All confirmed: Paraguay named their 26-man squad for World Cup 2026
The Paraguay national team officially confirmed the final list of 26 players selected by head coach Gustavo Alfaro to compete in the 2026 World Cup, marking La Albirroja’s long-awaited return to football’s biggest stage.
An international squad and Alfaro’s final doubt
The 63-year-old manager put together a squad with a strong international presence, calling up only three players from the local league. The rest of the team plays abroad, with notable contingents based in Brazil (7) and Argentina (6), the latter led by Matías Galarza, who is completing his return to River Plate.
The squad was formally completed this Monday at the Ypané complex with the arrival of forward Isidro Pitta (RB Bragantino). Pitta claimed the final spot after a tightly contested decision that left Ángel Romero, Mathías Villasanti, and Lucas Romero out.
Farewell and road to the opener
Paraguay will play a farewell friendly this Friday against Nicaragua at Defensores del Chaco. The following day, the delegation will travel to North America to prepare for its demanding World Cup debut on June 12 against co-host the United States.
