Football history: Turkey return to the World Cup for the first time since 2002 — when they finished a stunning third place in their first World Cup since 1954. The current side, built around Inter Milan's Çalhanoğlu and a generation of European-based stars, reached the Euro 2024 quarter-finals.
Current coach: Vincenzo Montella (since 2023)
Key player to watch: Hakan Çalhanoğlu — Inter Milan deep-lying playmaker, the team's metronome and set-piece taker.
Best World Cup result: Semi-finals — 3rd place at 2002 (South Korea/Japan)

Where does Turkey play at the 2026 World Cup?: Turkey is in Group D for the 2026 World Cup, hosted across the United States, Canada and Mexico. Use the XI builder above to assemble your projected Turkey starting eleven.
Can I build my own Turkey World Cup squad?: Yes — the Golazo XI builder lets you pick any 11 from the full Turkey pool, set a formation, and share an image of your lineup. No sign-up required.
Is the Turkey squad final?: The pool reflects the current player data we have on file and is updated as call-ups and form change in the run-up to the tournament. You can always re-pick your XI as the official squad is announced.
