Nine members of Manchester United have already been selected to represent their countries in Qatar in 2022

 

 

Nine Manchester United players will compete for their respective countries in the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup.

 

 

 

Diogo Dalot, Bruno Fernandes, and Cristiano Ronaldo have been named to the Portugal team, and Gareth Southgate's squad will also include Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, and forward Marcus Rashford.

 

 

With matches in Group H against Ghana, Uruguay, and South Korea beginning on November 24, Portugal's manager Fernando Santos revealed his 26-man squad.

 

 

 

Only four other players have ever played in five World Cups, which Cristiano Ronaldo will do. In addition, he hopes to become the first player to score in five different World Cups.

 

 

 

Bruno Fernandes, who played for Portugal in the 2018 World Cup and Euro 2020, is participating in his third senior tournament with Portugal.

 

 

 

Dalot was chosen for his first World Cup following a successful start to the campaign with United. The 23-year-old has started each of Erik ten Hag's 19 competitive games at Old Trafford, and he has made six appearances for Portugal since making his international debut at the Euros.

 

 

 

Meanwhile, Fernandes continues to be a key player for the Reds and has significantly contributed to Portugal's ability to reach this tournament.

 

 

 

This is Maguire and Rashford's second World Cup. Shaw was the youngest player at the 2014 tournament, at only 18 years old, while Maguire and Rashford were both chosen by Southgate for the 2014 World Cup in Russia.

 

 

 

Nine Reds have now confirmed their participation in the competition, with Alex Telles, Antony, Casemiro, and Fred providing Brazil's best representation in Tite's squad.

 

 

 

Raphael Varane has been included in Didier Deschamps' selection for France despite missing recent weeks due to injury, and Christian Eriksen has been named to the provisional list for Denmark.

 

 

 

Maguire, Rashford, and Shaw's selection for England continues a long tradition of United players representing the Three Lions at the most prestigious international competition on earth.

 

 

 

English teams have now selected at least one Red for each of the competition's 16 editions.
