The 2026 World Cup, to be held in the United States, Canada and Mexico, is about to begin its journey, as the world's strongest national teams dream of lifting the most coveted trophy in football. The grand final will be played in New York, where another page in football history will be written.
Beyond the race for the world title, this edition is also expected to bring individual challenges that could change the competition's records. The greatest attention is focused on Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe, two of the biggest stars of modern football.
The Argentine and the Frenchman are not only considered among the favorites to lead their national teams to success, but are also in the running to break a historic record. Miroslav Klose currently holds the record for the top scorer in World Cup history with 16 goals, a figure that now looks seriously under threat.
For Lionel Messi, the 2026 World Cup could be his last appearance on the biggest stage of football. The Argentina captain himself has admitted in recent months that this will most likely be his last world tournament. With 13 goals in World Cups, Messi is just three goals away from Klose's record and has the ideal opportunity to make history.
However, the road to the record will not be easy. Also in the running is Kylian Mbappe, who at the age of 27 has already scored 12 goals at the World Cup. The French striker has demonstrated extraordinary instincts in front of goal and is considered one of France's main weapons in this tournament.
With a national team that is among the main contenders for the trophy, Mbappe has the opportunity not only to win the World Cup, but also to dethrone German legend Miroslav Klose. Thus, the 2026 World Cup could bring not only a new world champion, but also a new goal king in the history of this competition.
