Yes, after the change of the International Board to definitively allow five changes per match, the team leader The football company has allowed the addition of three more players per team ahead of the meeting to be held in different parts of Doha in November and December. Up to Russia 2018, 23 players were allowed per team.
Furthermore, the organ that manages Gianni Infantino has resolved that the maximum number of members on the provisional list be extended from 35 to 55 players. That is, coaches will have a huge range to choose from until they make the final cut.
A maximum of 26 people can sit on the bench (up to fifteen substitutes and eleven members of the technical staff, one of which will be the team doctor).
Another FIFA resolution has to do with the calendar change that caused the World Cup to be moved in the last two months of the year, in which all leagues are usually in full competition.
In this sense, it has ordered that the last league match that the players included in the final rankings will play on November 13, 2022, just eight days before the start of the World Cup.
