Almirón Leads Paraguay to World Cup
Description
Miguel Almirón, Atlanta United’s captain and MLS veteran, is set to make his long-awaited World Cup debut with Paraguay in the expanded 2026 tournament, joining three other MLS stars as the nation’s most experienced player with 75 caps and 9 goals. Returning to Atlanta after a stint in England, Almirón brings championship pedigree and leadership to a Paraguay squad aiming for a deep run in Group D — featuring the U.S., Türkiye, and Australia. With Paraguay’s last major tournament run a 2010 quarterfinal and their ninth World Cup appearance, Almirón’s scoring touch and on-field command could be pivotal as they chase history on North American soil from June 11 to July 19.
