All The Preliminary World Cup Squads
Posted: 2010-05-12 10:52
Here they are … 32 national squads comprising almost a 900 players heading for the first World Cup in Africa.
Coaches still have time to fine-tune their line-up, with June 1 being Fifa’s closing date for the final 23 players from each country that will be registered to play.
There were lots of big names not called up: No Ronaldinho or Pato for Brazil. Karim Benzema and Patrick Vieira out of the Tricolors. Juan Roman Riquelme, Zanetti and Cambiasso left out by Maradona too. Totti didn’t get the call for Italy either!
Here are the 32 provisional squads that have been submitted to Fifa.
