The FIFA 2022 World Cup hosted by Qatar is fast approaching, and the world will come to a standstill for the highly anticipated tournament. A world record number of viewers are expected to tune in to watch their nation’s team try to achieve what only eight nations have done before, lift the Jules Rimet trophy. France is many people’s favourite to retain the trophy, but they will face stiff competition from countries such as Germany, England, Brazil, and Spain.

Watching all these great teams and players face off on football’s biggest stage is a pleasure regardless of who you support. With so much talent on display, who are the players to keep an eye on in Qatar?

England Sensation Harry Kane

Tottenham and England star Kane is currently the bookmaker’s favorite to be the highest goal scorer in Qatar. England has not won the World Cup since 1966, and many believe England’s captain Kane in great club and international form could help it be England’s year once again. Despite his recent controversy appearing in a casino online promotion, Kane will have put all that behind him and shine in Qatar.

Christiano Ronaldo, One Last Chance to Win The World Cup

Ronaldo has been arguably the world’s best player for the last two decades. Aged 37 it is his last chance to win the one trophy he has yet to lift. The five-time Ballon d’Or winner is guaranteed to play at his very best and help tournament underdog Portugal to win the Qatar 2022 World Cup.

Kylian Mbappe Hoping For A Second World Cup

The French youngster Mbappe has been fantastic for club and country and is now the highest played player in football. Since arriving on the scene with AS Monaco 2 in 2015 and the inevitable Paris St Germain transfer, he has set the football world on fire. Fast and with exceptional skills on the ball, he will be looking to add another World Cup winners medal to accompany his 2018 winning prize.

Eden Hazard, Belgium’s Talisman

Hazard is widely considered to be the greatest Belgian player of all time. The national team captain has been instrumental in Belgium reaching number on FIFA’s world ranking table. Despite the fact that Belgium has yet to win a major international competition. Hazard is in a similar position to Ronaldo and, due to age, is unlikely to play in another World Cup.

Senegal’s Edouard Mendy

The Chelsea and Senegal number one has been in great form for club and country in recent years, earning him the accolade of the best goalkeeper in the world. Most people would agree that Senegal has little chance of winning the World Cup, but you can be assured Mendy will still play as well as any other goalkeeper in the tournament.

Lionel Messi, The Argentinian Legend

Also, a player with age not on his side, Messi will be out to fill the one remaining space in his trophy cabinet, a FIFA World Cup winners medal. Argentina in recent years has not been playing at its best, but lately, the team has been recording some impressive results and is expected to challenge for the trophy.
