As the 2022 FIFA World Cup approaches, it is interesting to look at stars who could make an influence. We have looked at the different teams and chosen four players to watch out for in Qatar.
Kylian Mbappé
Mbappé is currently the poster boy of professional football. Aside from incredible club performances, Mbappé has solidified himself as a World Cup performer due to the 2018 World Cup. Here, he was awarded the FIFA World Cup Best Young Player Award and scored an amazing 25-yard strike in the final against Croatia.
Cristiano Ronaldo
The list of awards and honors that Ronaldo has gained is legendary. Though he is 37 yet still considered one of the best players in the world. At this point in their career, most forwards are on the decline and haveregressedphysically – but not Ronaldo. Ronaldo is the all-time international leading goal scorer, and you can count on him in Qatar.
Lionel Messi
We could not list Cristiano Ronaldo without also including Lionel Messi. He remains a once-in-a-generation talent and has proved himself time and time again as the leading force behind Argentina's international squad. He is also a major reason why football is the most popular sport in the world. After disappointment in the 2018 World Cup, we can count on Messi to up his game and lead his team in Group C.
Neymar
Neymar is one of the most exciting and legendary Brazilian footballers since Ronaldinho and Ronaldo. He has proved to be an incredible player at both club and international level and has scored 74 goals in 119 appearances for Brazil. On the international stage, Neymar has competed in many events, including the 2014 and 2018 World Cups, the 2015 Copa America and the Olympics.
Who do you think are the players to watch out for? These are only four picks, after all, and there are many more talented stars who will be looking to make their name in Qatar.
