What would be the most powerful League in the world if the Qatar 2022 finalists are taken into account?

The Qatar World Cup 2022 It is already near the end. Argentina and France have proven to be the best teams in recent weeks and this Sunday they will have to face each other to fight for the long-awaited trophy. But one day before -not to forget- Croatia and Morocco will do the same to define third place in the tournament. With these two attractive duels, a World Cup edition will close that has reflected many things, whether positive or negative.

In football matters, what never goes unnoticed in any competition is the constant dispute between the Top Leagues in Europe. Not only in the Champions League can you realize the level at which each of these Leagues is, sending their best teams to the war for glory, but this contest also extends to the World Cups. And is not for less.

In principle, the primary guide on this subject is usually the UEFA coefficient ranking, which takes into account all the results of the clubs of each Federation in order to determine the place that corresponds to it.

Under this model, England leads the table above Spain (2nd), Germany (3rd), Italy (4th) and France (5th), which are on their heels. However, the reality is different if we take into account the 104 players from the four teams that survived until the last one in Qatar 2022.

In this case, LaLiga de España would be the most powerful in the world today, since the largest number of semifinalist and finalist footballers in the current World Cup (23) are active in clubs belonging to this league competition. Curiously, Atlético de Madrid (5), Sevilla (5) and Real Madrid (4) are the teams that contribute the most.

England follows him in this special table with 16 footballers, 14 of them from the Premier League and the other two from the Championship. Meanwhile, Ligue 1 in France and Serie A in Italy share the same number (14). And to close the Top5, the German Bundesliga marks a presence with 13.

Here is the complete table:

With this, several conclusions can be drawn from the perspective in which you want to look. Without a doubt, the World Cup also works as a great measure for the Leagues. For this reason, the monitoring of the clubs to their World Cup players has been vital in Qatar 2022.

Today, only France and Argentina, the two finalists of the tournament, are still standing. And if we only count the players from both teams, the Spanish LaLiga would continue to prevail by far (16) in this regard.

France– LaLiga (Spain): 6
– Ligue 1 (France): 6
– Bundesliga (Germany): 6
– Premier League (England): 5
– Serie A (Italy): 3
Argentina– LaLiga (Spain): 10
– Premier League (England): 5
– Serie A (Italy): 4
– Ligue 1 (France): 2
– Bundesliga (Germany): 1
Morocco– Ligue 1 (France): 5
– LaLiga (Spain): 4
– Serie A (Italy): 3

– Bundesliga (Germany): 1
Croatia– Bundesliga (Germany): 5
– Serie A (Italy): 4
– LaLiga (Spain): 3
– Premier League (England): 2
– Ligue 1 (France): 1

Spain’s second place in the UEFA ranking, then, would become first, which does not really mean such a resounding change. This is what the World Cup reflects today and, well… Real Madrid is the current champion of the Champions League, right? A lot will have to do with all that.
