*data correct up to the conclusion of the FIFA World Cup 2026
A stalwart of international tournaments at this stage, having played at UEFA EURO 2016, UEFA EURO 2020, UEFA EURO 2024, FIFA World Cup 2018 and FIFA World Cup 2026. Often blighted by injuries, Embolo is fully fit and ready to go in a group that consists of Qatar, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Canada – one in which he will believe he can rack up the numbers. The 29-year-old, who has over 20 goals for Switzerland, is expected to lead the line after joining Stade Rennais last summer from Monaco.
