Maybe the deepest squad in the tournament
France have reached the final at two of the last three World Cups. Mbappe is in his prime. The midfield is the strongest in international football. They sit in Group I with Norway, Senegal and an intercontinental playoff winner — group of death, but France should still top it.
The design
Elegant navy Nike home shirt with subtle tricolour details and elite-level polish. The crest is the FFF mark with the rooster sitting proud. Paired with white shorts and red socks. One of the most premium-feeling kits in the tournament. The away kit (white) is also one of the best releases of the cycle.
Who to watch
Kylian Mbappe the biggest name in football, captain, and tournament headline. Aurelien Tchouameni anchoring midfield. William Saliba elite at the back. Add Camavinga, Theo Hernandez, Ousmane Dembele, and Marcus Thuram. Genuinely no weak spots anywhere.
Why you should care
The Mbappe name shirt is going to be the single best-selling football shirt of 2026. France in navy looks elite on TV. If you want a tournament favourite’s shirt to wear to the pub for every game, this is the one.
