FIFA Approves Special Legacy Patch for Muslera at 2026 World Cup
During Uruguay's 2026 World Cup match against Spain, goalkeeper Fernando Muslera took to the pitch wearing a special Legacy Patch on his jersey. This exclusive badge is reserved by FIFA for players who have participated in at least five World Cup tournaments. Muslera's appearance at the 2026 tournament marks his fifth inclusion in a World Cup squad, following his selections for South Africa 2010, Brazil 2014, Russia 2018, and Qatar 2022.
The inclusion of the badge was initially in doubt, as Muslera did not play any minutes during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where Sergio Rochet started in goal. However, the Uruguayan Football Association submitted a formal petition to FIFA to recognize his squad selection as a full participation. FIFA officially approved the request, allowing the veteran goalkeeper to sport the Legacy Patch.
