Switzerland Squad

Switzerland squad in 2018 World Cup is one of the best ones that this country has had in the recent years. So, while they managed to qualify, they were pushed away from the easy route to Russia by the Portugal team, losing only once in the entire qualifiers stage.

Despite the good performance, Switzerland team doesn’t have many players with high renown worldwide. There are exceptions of course, but the squad doesn’t rely on just a few players. Instead, every player helps to carry the load.

Here is the full and confirmed list of the 23 players which will make the squad in the group stage of Russia World Cup.

• Goalkeepers: Roman Buerki, Yvon Mvogo, Yann Sommer.
• Defenders: Manuel Akanji, Johan Djourou, Nico Elvedi, Michael Lang, Stephan Lichtsteiner, Jacques-Francois Moubandje, Ricardo Rodriguez, Fabian Schaer.

• Forwards: Josip Drmic, Breel Embolo, Mario Gavranovic, Haris Seferovic.

With a squad like this, we think it’s safe to say that Switzerland will advance to the round of 16.

Switzerland squad is made up of decent players which can perform fairly well despite the fact there are few truly exceptional stars among them.
