Who are the best players not at the Qatar 2022 World Cup?
While Messi, Neymar, Kane and others will all be on the plane to the Middle East, several other stars will have to settle for watching from home.
Italy’s surprise exit from North Macedonia in UEFA qualifiers means Jorginho, Marco Verratti and other teammates who won Euro 2020 will not be in Qatar.
Mohamed Salah will also be out as Liverpool and Egypt’s talisman lose their battle with Senegal for a place in the African region qualifying in a repeat of the 2022 AFCON final.
The confirmed absentee list also includes other household names, Erling Haaland (Norway), Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (Gabon), Naby Keita (Guinea) and Edin Dzeko (Bosnia) stayed at home after their country failed to qualify from their group.
