According to Kylian Mbappe, the captain of France, Spain is a strong candidate to win the 2026 World Cup. The 26-year-old scored in a 3-0 World Cup qualifying victory over Azerbaijan on Friday, putting them on track to compete in the tournament next year. Mbappe is picking the European champions, even though many commentators believe Les Bleus is one of the favorites to win the cup once more. Mbappé declared, “I think [Spain] is the best team in Europe right now.” “However, the World Cup is unique.” Mbappé lost to Lionel Messi’s Argentina in 2022 after winning the 2018 World Cup.
