What's in the issue

Our World Cup Special is the perfect companion for the tournament, featuring Part One of our in-depth group guides with detailed profiles of every team, their star players and predicted line-ups. We’ve also made some bold predictions of our own and challenge you to make yours too, while shining a spotlight on the wonderkids ready to light up the biggest stage. Alongside all of that, there’s a bumper preview of the Champions League, Conference League, and Women’s FA Cup finals, plus a first look at some of next season’s newest kits.
