FIFA will allow countries to select up to 26 players for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, increasing the maximum squad size by three for the November 21-December 18 tournament.
“The number of players to be included on the final list has been increased to at least 23 and a maximum of 26,” FIFA said in a statement.
UEFA adopted similar changes for Euro 2020 last year in response to Covid-19 concerns.
