Saïd El Mala and Serhou Guriassy miss World Cup 2026

Saïd El Mala and Serhou Guriassy will not be part of the FIFA World Cup 2026 squad. They are among the Bundesliga players confirmed absent from the tournament.

The Bundesliga hosts many of the world’s top footballers, yet not all will travel to the 2026 World Cup. The league’s depth means several high‑profile names will miss the global event.

An XI of the biggest Bundesliga stars absent from the World Cup has been compiled. The list begins with Saïd El Mala and ends with Serhou Guriassy.

The omission of these players reduces the pool of talent available to national teams. Their clubs will continue the season without World Cup interruption.

The 2026 World Cup will proceed without the two Bundesliga internationals. Their absence will be noted by fans and analysts alike.
