I really really doubt that. Dude would be 40+ years old and if he is still playing then it would be like 3.5 years playing in Saudi league, that doesn't really prepare you for World cup. Before this one he was at least member of United and he was seen as not wanted and all that which makes sense and happens but we still didn't know where he would play, he was last played at United before he went there.

When you are the striker for United, even if there are issues you are still the striker for Manchester United, that is as good as it gets for most players. Now? He is an unwanted player playing for money in Saudi league, basically puppet for the rich people there, doubt he can even play up until that point.

The only way Christiano Ronaldo will be at the next World Cup is if he does an ad like Pirlo did in this one.

There's no way Christiano Ronaldo will be at a competitive level after playing years in that league and at his age. He already wasn't very good in the last world cup to be honest, no way he's coming back.

In fact, when you think about it, you know that the best living legends like Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Lewandowski, Dani Alves will probably not play in the next World Cup. I personally think that if such legends do not play the World Cup, football fans will not get the real joy and essence of football.

I don't understand why you think so.
In 4 years, new great players and stars will come, who may be even better than Ronaldo and Messi and delight us with their games. It's a natural process that happens all the time and every next world cup is better and more interesting than the previous one.
When I watched Maradona at the 1986 World Cup, I thought it was the pinnacle of football and that it couldn't get any better, but I was wrong. It was the same with the great generation of Brazil in 2002, with the real Ronaldo and Ronaldinho. At every World Cup, a new football star appears, so it will be the same at the 2026 World Cup, don't worry.

Still cannot make sure if Cristiano Ronaldo can play in the next world cup even with the current performance and situation he has, because we are still in 2023 and three years left to the world cup while the Cristiano Ronaldo we see right now playing for Al-Nassr couldn't show the good performance we saw from Cristiano Ronaldo in Real Madrid and Manchester United, now consider Cristiano Ronaldo is the next three years obviously he can't be a good option for the world cup.

If it is so hard for Christiano Ronaldo in his present club yo perform well, that means the next World cup he may not participate. In the previous world cup the Portuguese team were not very impressive with the outcome of their performance. In the next world cup they will want to make a good impact.

Previously Messi had announced, that the 2022 world cup would be his last world cup. I'm pretty sure Messi will keep what he said before not to be involved in the world cup competition. although, coach Scaloni still wants Messi to appear in the upcoming world cup.
For Ronaldo, I don't really remember whether he also said that the 2022 cup was his last world cup. but what is certain, in the 2026 cup later, these two stars are getting older. I'm not sure they can contribute much, the problem is, age will never betray that performance degradation cannot be avoided by both of them.

At this time, Scaloni should rely more on their young squad. plus, if Garnacho can do well with United. that is, he has the opportunity to play with the national team. after all, Argentina has the talent of other young players. meanwhile, the Portugal squad has plenty of young talent in place of Ronaldo. there is Goncalo Ramos, Joao Felix. so, it's time for Messi and Ronaldo to retire from the world cup championship and let their regeneration take over in the 2026 championship later.

Absolutely, it's high time we let young prodigies take the reins in the impending World Cup extravaganza! Seriously, witnessing the same seasoned contenders every single time? Yawn-fest! The truth is, how effective can these old-timers genuinely be at this stage? Perhaps they're better off savoring tea and basking in twilight. The up-and-comers, on the other hand, embody the future, the aspiration, the vision! They merit an opportunity to strut their stuff. And who's to say, they might just bowl us over with their stupendous aptitude and flair! So let's offer them a shot, and allow the veterans to bow out gracefully. The torch must be passed to the next-gen stars!

Can't be sure about the situation of Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in 2026, we know both players are still superstars in their teams, Messi is still playing for a top European team while Ronaldo decided to continue his career in an Asian team with more money but can't be a reason to say Ronaldo should think about stop playing for his national team soon, also since Messi was one of the best players in 2022 world cup, he still has a high chance to play for Argentina in 2026.

Yes, that's true and that's what I tried to comment on in my previous post.

If we carry out some analysis, I also agree that Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo by 2026 may be able to participate in the World Cup.
But I have no doubt that their performance may decline by then.
Messi will be 39 years old and Cristiano Ronaldo will be 41 years old in 2026 (next world cup).

Cristiano Ronaldo tried several times to be champion of a world cup defending Portugal, and every time he failed.
Honestly, I see no reason for him to want to participate in the 2026 World Cup, he has a lot of money and I believe he also knows that he will not be able to be champion of the next World Cup in 2026.

With regard to Messi, I also don't know if he will play in the next cup, he might want to retire from the Argentine national team with a golden key (being world cup champion), and breaking several records as a player.

Of course what I said is not conclusive, it is merely my humble opinion on this matter!

Do you really believe that Ronaldo will participate in the 2026 World Cup? Especially after all the humiliation that he suffered in 2022? The coach (Fernando Santos) humiliated him by refusing to include him in the starting XI. It worked against Switzerland (Portugal won by 6-1), but in the next match the coach tried the same strategy and Portugal got kicked out of the world cup after they lost to Morocco. Now he has moved to Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia and there are rumors that he may apply for the Saudi citizenship. So there are minimal chances that he may participate in the 2026 World Cup. BTW, in case he participates in the world cup, he will be older than the oldest player in 2022.

Well, I believe the same happened with Cristiano Ronaldo, I believe that the 2022 World Cup was the last for both Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, I have no doubt that in the 2026 World Cup they will be able to be physically prepared and will be able to both play for their teams, but I have no doubt that the performance of Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo will decrease...

With the performance that Argentina presented in the first games of the 2022 world cup, I would never have imagined that they could win that cup, I would believe that Brazil could have reached the finals, but unfortunately Brazil made unacceptable mistakes against Croatia's game and lost that extremely important match

Can't be sure about the situation of Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in 2026, we know both players are still superstars in their teams, Messi is still playing for a top European team while Ronaldo decided to continue his career in an Asian team with more money but can't be a reason to say Ronaldo should think about stop playing for his national team soon, also since Messi was one of the best players in 2022 world cup, he still has a high chance to play for Argentina in 2026.

If countries that are less interested in football get a chance to participate in this tournament, interest in football will increase in those countries. I think this is a very correct point of view. I support this approach. In addition, the world cup organization held in Qatar showed us the success of the Asian and African teams. I look forward to seeing more teams from these continents. If the name of this organization is the World Cup, we should make it a real world game. If that happens, we will enjoy this tournament more.

This idea to increase the number of world cup participants would also have some financial benefits.The funds that most teams in developing nations would get from participating in the world cup can also be used to promote football in their home country. Some teams in developing nations are underfunded which might have contributed to their poor performance. Teams from Asia and Africa need funds to finance their national teams and local leagues. This will help to to promote football in the country and discovery of more quality player.

There are several reasons for the increase on the number of teams being allowed to participate on the world cup, to begin with there are political reasons for this move, Infantino became the president of FIFA by promising federations more spots for the world cup, another reason is that this will increase the interest on the world cup as now more countries will participate in it, and finally with this the amount of money FIFA will earn from the world cup will increase as well.

Their is a reason for the increase and it might not not be as bad as we think. I believe the 2026 world cup will be very interesting with new chances. If fifa increase the number of teams that will be participating it doesn't mean their will lots of weaker teams that will be participating in the competition.

You can never tell which new team will come forward as a competitive team in upcoming World Cup and may be they'll reach in later stages . You can never tell the potential anyone is having before the game as this world we have seen Morocco emerging as a stronger team.
This will increase popularity of fifa and football by leaps and bounds .

Well, in the case of Morocco, they have potential, let's remember that they have Hakimi, who is a very good fútbol player and who is at PSG, so European soccer brought to a country like Morocco is something that can lead to success, because you learn a lot of technique, and that technique is learned by their teammates, so a player from a national team that plays in Europe becomes a great advantage, the local fútbol leagues are very good, but the fact that one has experience in Europe sets a pattern, fútbol in a country grows, especially if its players all play in other leagues, because they become a great army of 11.

if CR7 becomes the main focus of the Portuguese national team in the 2026 world cup, then Portugal will have their chance to win the world cup

the Portuguese national team still has young talents who can work well together in the squad, there are many legends who are far better than CR7 but when they are old, they must give hope to the younger generation so that the strength of a team does not decrease. The 2026 world cup is still quite long, but the Portuguese national team has definitely prepared for it thoroughly

Players like Cristiano Ronaldo can help the teams more than normal players and that is what we saw in the last world cup about Argentina Messi and how he helped his team, while still the Portuguese national teams have enough young players and they can even find a younger to replace player even if that player is Cristiano Ronaldo but still I think Ronaldo will not show the good performance in 2026 to be a part of his national team anymore.

The players were at good fitness. By the time of 2026 World Cup Ronaldo will be 40+ and Messi will be close to 40 years of age. Messi have won the World Cup which gives him the satisfaction whereas Ronaldo might try for it once again. We don't know whether this will make them move further into playing than coaching the team. More young players are emerging out of every football country which could let the superstars take retirement and support the young players reach great success.

BTW, in case he participates in the world cup, he will be older than the oldest player in 2022.

Intriguing thought! You know, Ronaldo's 2026 World Cup participation hinges on several big-league factors. Firstly, health's the name of the game. As the man ages, he might not be the powerhouse he once was. Plus, life's more than just soccer, right? Family and business endeavors might call his name. Secondly, the coach and team dynamics matter, big time. If Ronaldo doesn't feel like a valued, respected player, he might say, "no way!" Thirdly, we're talking about his Portuguese pride and Saudi Arabian connection – the emotional aspect can't be ignored.

In the end, Ronaldo has the final say, and we must abide with his decision. Supporting our favorite athletes is important whether or not they are in the game. Football is about much more than just kicking a ball; it reflects and contributes to broader cultural and moral discussions. Let's hold a parade to honor equality and human rights on and off the field. Here's hoping that the 2026 World Cup is an amazing display of football and compassion!

Cristiano Ronaldo has been performing well at Al Nasir's club. But his performance will never be compared to Messi-Neymar performance. Because Messi-Neymar are playing in the biggest leagues and Cristiano Ronaldo is playing a small insignificant game.

Still cannot make sure if Cristiano Ronaldo can play in the next world cup even with the current performance and situation he has, because we are still in 2023 and three years left to the world cup while the Cristiano Ronaldo we see right now playing for Al-Nassr couldn't show the good performance we saw from Cristiano Ronaldo in Real Madrid and Manchester United, now consider Cristiano Ronaldo is the next three years obviously he can't be a good option for the world cup.

Cristiano career is at the end of the road as his performance is not over the top , when he joined Al Nassr people were expecting too much from him and may be he didn't match upto people's expectations which clearly shows his future.
Total goals s ored by him in Al Nassr till now Is 8 in 9 games played .

Ronaldo has practically not played at the highest level for the last few years, and with his toxic action he damaged the ambitions of Juve, Manchester United and the Portuguese national team.
Only when they got rid of Ronaldo did Manchester United start playing well and getting great results.
At the world championship in Qatar, Ronaldo destroyed the ambitions of a very good team to achieve a good result at the world cup with his selfish behavior. Journalists talked more about Ronaldo than about the games of the Portuguese national team. If the Portuguese coach had the strength and courage to get rid of Ronaldo like the coach of Manchester United did, Portugal would have achieved a much better result at the World Cup.

I want to say something about the next World Cup. The next World Cup is likely to have 48 teams and 104 matches. This matter is really good and new teams will be added so it is expected that the World Cup will be more magnificent.

Cristiano career is at the end of the road as his performance is not over the top , when he joined Al Nassr people were expecting too much from him and may be he didn't match upto people's expectations which clearly shows his future.
Total goals s ored by him in Al Nassr till now Is 8 in 9 games played .

No matter how good Cristiano Ronaldo performs, he can never be compared to Lionel Messi. Because the opponents in Ronaldo's league are very weak and they are outside the European continent. So it is foolish to compare Cristiano Ronaldo's performance with European league players.

The players were at good fitness. By the time of 2026 World Cup Ronaldo will be 40+ and Messi will be close to 40 years of age. Messi have won the World Cup which gives him the satisfaction whereas Ronaldo might try for it once again. We don't know whether this will make them move further into playing than coaching the team. More young players are emerging out of every football country which could let the superstars take retirement and support the young players reach great success.

Do you really believe that Ronaldo will participate in the 2026 World Cup? Especially after all the humiliation that he suffered in 2022? The coach (Fernando Santos) humiliated him by refusing to include him in the starting XI. It worked against Switzerland (Portugal won by 6-1), but in the next match the coach tried the same strategy and Portugal got kicked out of the world cup after they lost to Morocco. Now he has moved to Al Nassr in Saudi Arabia and there are rumors that he may apply for the Saudi citizenship. So there are minimal chances that he may participate in the 2026 World Cup. BTW, in case he participates in the world cup, he will be older than the oldest player in 2022.

Intriguing thought! You know, Ronaldo's 2026 World Cup participation hinges on several big-league factors. Firstly, health's the name of the game. As the man ages, he might not be the powerhouse he once was. Plus, life's more than just soccer, right? Family and business endeavors might call his name. Secondly, the coach and team dynamics matter, big time. If Ronaldo doesn't feel like a valued, respected player, he might say, "no way!" Thirdly, we're talking about his Portuguese pride and Saudi Arabian connection – the emotional aspect can't be ignored.

In the end, Ronaldo has the final say, and we must abide with his decision. Supporting our favorite athletes is important whether or not they are in the game. Football is about much more than just kicking a ball; it reflects and contributes to broader cultural and moral discussions. Let's hold a parade to honor equality and human rights on and off the field. Here's hoping that the 2026 World Cup is an amazing display of football and compassion!

I totally agree with the first reason you said about increasing the number of teams in the world cup because letting more weak teams participate in the world cup will surely decrease the quality of the world cup and we will see more games where the weak team playing against a strong team with full defensive playing style from the beginning of the match with can make the world cup matches boring for the fans.

Again and again the same argument.. LOL.. do you guys never get tired. There are no "strong" and "weak" teams nowadays. Two or three decades ago, there used to be a huge gap between teams from UEFA/CONMEBOL and those from AFC/CAF. But that gap has vanished now. As we have seen, Morocco defeated some of the strongest teams from UEFA to reach the semi-finals during Qatar 2022. The so called "weak"-"strong" argument is just an excuse to allow backdoor entry for the stagnant teams from Europe such as Danmark and Belgium, who don't deserve a place in the tournament.

The argument of strong and weak sides isn't basically a useless argument as it is the reality of the world, there are always weak and strong sides in whatever game is played or even if it isn't a game and something else. There is no denying the fact that the weak can sometimes defeat the strong but that doesn't really mean that there is no concept of strong and weak at all, especially in football.

We tend to believe that hard work comes before luck, that's why we say that we won't get food just by sitting at home if we are lucky, but we have to do our part. That is exactly how it happens. A weak team does it's best to win against stronger sides, and since they are working hard, luck favours them at times, so they win. But, if stats and other things are checked, we can clearly see that they are a weaker side.

It would be foolish to predict what the next World Cup will look like now. Because the FIFA authorities themselves may have started to think very little about these issues. But it can be expected that the next World Cup will be more spectacular than this one.

Don't be surprised that it might look foolish to you but there are some gamblers that loves to bet on this kind of game especially when it is take few years and months before it is going to play out. Everyone of us has different reasons why bet and there are gamblers that love it when the game is going to play out after a long time. With this, the odd is going to be high with bigger opportunity to win more money compared to when the date of the match is closed. For me I like betting on games that are far more closer than waiting for a long time before I see the result of a match.
