Brazilian football legend Ronaldo Nazário has named Spain and France as the two most probable winners of the 2026 World Cup. Speaking during the World Cup opening ceremony at the Azteca Stadium in Mexico, the two-time world champion offered his assessment alongside several other former world champions. Ronaldo stated, “If there are two teams I see as favorites, they are Spain and France.
They are above the other teams, although there are nations that one must always be careful about.”
His comments were made on the day FIFA released its latest ranking. Following the announcement, Argentina reclaimed the top position in the world, while Spain, managed by Luis de la Fuente, secured the second spot. France’s ranking was also noted during the proceedings.
Ronaldo’s selection highlights his view on the current strength of the top footballing nations. The assessment suggests that, in his professional opinion, Spain and France possess the requisite quality to contend for the world title. The event provided a platform for established global football figures to predict the outcome of the upcoming tournament.
