Which Arsenal players are playing at the World Cup today?

Arsenal have a large pool of players at the World Cup this year. The North London outfit, having won the Premier League and reached the final of the Champions League, is one of the best teams in the world.

Most days, Arsenal players are in action. It might be the biggest World Cup in the history of the competition, but Arsenal have bases across Europe and South America.

This article is updated to showcase the Arsenal players potentially in action each day.

Which Arsenal players could feature in today's World Cup matches?

Monday June 22, 2026 - France play today, which means one Arsenal player could be involved yet again.

Tuesday June 23, 2026 - Jumping ahead slightly, but if anyone fancies an early morning kick off (to say the least), then Norway will face Senegal at 1:30 am on Tuesday.

Today's World Cup fixtures involving Arsenal players

Players most likely to make an impact

High-impact players certainly include Martin Odegaard, who is arguably Norway's most important player. Sure, the robotic Erling Haaland gets all the praise for his goals (and rightly so), but Odegaard is the gel that glues Norway together.

How Arsenal's players have performed at the World Cup so far

Kai Havertz has been Arsenal's standout performer at the World Cup. In Germany's opener against Curacao, he netted twice, establishing himself as an early contender for the Golden Boot.

Viktor Gyökeres also opened his account in Sweden's first game, after he scored a clutch goal to secure their qualification.

Martin Ødegaard, unsurprisingly, provided an assist in Norway's first game.

Bukayo Saka was benched in England's first game, but he still came off the bench to provide an assist.

What today's matches mean for Arsenal's internationals

France and Norway both share three points in their group, with his game being the final game before Saliba and Odegaard need to face each other.

If both teams win, then they will confirm their place in the World Cup knockouts. Therefore, with both Saliba and Odegaard set to start for their countries tonight, their respective games against Iraq and Senegal are certainly worth tuning into.
