FIFA has selected Mohamed Salah, the star of the Egyptian national team and Liverpool FC, among the top 10 African players expected to shine at the 2026 World Cup, which will be held in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

The 2026 World Cup draw placed Egypt in Group G alongside Iran, Belgium, and New Zealand. This will be the first time in history that 10 African teams will participate in the tournament.

FIFA's official website stated that the 2026 World Cup will feature a new generation of African stars, alongside established veterans, all poised to make their mark on the world stage in North America.

Nine seasons with Liverpool were enough to place Mohamed Salah among the club's most prominent legends, after combining collective titles and individual achievements, from the 2019 Champions League to two Premier League titles, in addition to four Golden Boot awards, with a consistent attacking presence and rare continuity.
