Ecuador and Chelsea midfielder, Moises Caicedo
Chelsea midfielder Moises Caicedo has been named in Ecuador’s squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, as the South American side prepares for the tournament in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
As reported by BBC Sport on Monday, the 23-year-old is one of Ecuador’s most important players and will feature at his second consecutive World Cup, having also been part of the national team at the previous edition.
Caicedo’s inclusion highlights Ecuador’s strong core of Europe-based players as they aim to make a deeper run in the competition this time around.
He is joined in the squad by Arsenal defender Piero Hincapie, who will also be making his second World Cup appearance. The defensive duo are expected to play key roles for Ecuador as they look to compete in a tough group.
