DR Congo national football team have officially unveiled their final squad for the FIFA World Cup 2026, with head coach Sébastien Desabre naming a strong list of Europe- and Africa-based players as the nation prepares for a highly anticipated tournament campaign.
The squad features several high-profile attackers, including Yoane Wissa of Newcastle United, veteran striker Cédric Bakambu, and in-form forward Simon Banza, alongside Egypt-based star Fiston Mayele.
DR Congo will compete in Group 11 of the tournament, where they face a challenging set of fixtures against Portugal, Uzbekistan, and Colombia, setting up a demanding path to the knockout stages.
The squad selection reflects a balance of experience and emerging talent, with players spread across top European leagues as well as strong performers from African and Middle Eastern competitions.
Desabre has relied heavily on attacking depth and physical intensity in his final selection, aiming to give DR Congo a competitive edge in what will be one of the most important World Cup appearances in the nation’s history.
The final squad is expected to report to camp in the coming weeks as preparations intensify ahead of the global tournament.
