Uruguay Squad
Uruguay head into the World Cup after qualifying in second place in the CONMEBOL Confederation. The South American side have a very good squad, and one which could definitely ruffle a few feathers in Russia.
Uruguay will play in Group A and their opponents are Russia, Uruguay and Saudi Arabia. Uruguay should definitely progress from their group and they will be a good match for any opposition they face in the knockout stages.
Uruguay World Cup 2018 Squad
This is the full and final 23-man Uruguay squad:
Uruguay Goalkeepers: Martin Silva, Fernando Muslera, Martin Campana
Uruguay Defenders: Sebastian Coates, Diego Godin, Maximiliano Pereira, Jose Maria Gimenez, Guillermo Varela, Gaston Silva, Martin Caceres
Uruguay Midfielders: Cristian Rodriguez, Nahitan Nandez, Lucas Torreira, Rodrigo Bentancur, Matias Vecino, Carlos Sanchez, Giorgian De Arrascaeta, Gaston Ramirez
Uruguay Strikers: Maximiliano Gomez, Edinson Cavani, Cristhian Stuani, Luis Suarez
Evidently, an impressive squad. Uruguay reached the last sixteen in Brazil four years ago and finished in fourth place in the 2010 World Cup.
There is certainly talent in this Uruguay squad, and we think that they can go quite far in Russia. Uruguay kick-off against Egypt on the 15th June and they will be hoping to make a statement in this match.
