FIFA has just officially announced this Tuesday evening the composition of the four pots for the draw of the group stage of the 2026 World Cup, scheduled for Friday, December 5, in Washington!
The French team is in Pot 1, alongside, notably, the three host countries (USA, Canada, Mexico), as well as Argentina, Spain, and Brazil.

Erling Haaland's Norway and Mohamed Salah's Egypt are seen as the dark horses in Pot 3, along with Algeria.
The six winners of the upcoming playoffs in March will be added to Pot 4. If Italy qualifies, the four-time world champions will, therefore, be in Pot 4!
A possible group of death for Les Bleus: Colombia, Algeria, Italy.
We could also have a group with Brazil or Argentina, Morocco, Norway, and Italy.
