2 June 2026
Breel Embolo was delayed from travelling with Switzerland to the United States for the World Cup after his ESTA was placed under review. The forward was due to fly with the squad to Los Angeles on Tuesday.
The Swiss federation said it was working with authorities and expected Embolo to join the group soon. The delay disrupts preparations for a key striker before Switzerland’s group matches against Canada, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Qatar.
