INCREDIBLE: The STARS who will MISS the World Cup
Some of the best players in the world will not gonna be in Qatar
The FIFA World Cup is what every player expects and dreams to win someday with their national team, but, unfortunately, the qualifications are not easy in any continent, meaning that some megastars will not be in Qatar.
The first one we have to mention is Erling Haaland. Despite breaking records since his debut and in the Premier League nowadays the Norwegian failed to reach a World Cup spot since they finished third in their UEFA group behind Netherlands and Turkey. The Man City star, who scored 14 goals in just 10 games, will miss the most important tournament.
Italy, the champions of Europe, losing to North Macedonia in the Qualys was a huge surprise for everyone, and mostly for their stars Jorginho and Donnaruma. Former Ballon d'Or contender and the PSG goalkeeper will see everything on TV despite being two of Europe's most influential and recognized players last 2021 season.
Meanwhile, in Africa were also some dissapointemens as both Mohamed Salah and Riyad Mahrez, Premier League's best right-wingers failed to qualify with Egypt and Algeria respectively. These two out means that five PL, one Champions League, one Club World Cup, and 440 goals are out of Qatar.
America also has surprises. Colombia and Chile lost their places in CONMEBOL qualification, meaning that neither Luis Díaz, James Rodríguez, Arturo Vidal, nor Alexis Sánchez will have a presence. All players with experience and earned international respect.
