National football team squads registered (2022-present)

Players who have participated in major tournaments (FIFA World Cup, UEFA European Championship, CONMEBOL Copa América, CONCACAF Gold Cup, CAF Africa Cup of Nations, AFC Asian Cup) are continuously registered on a yearly basis to preserve their place in history. These are the tournaments that qualify as major competitions.

The historical rosters of national teams are compiled based on participation in these major tournaments, with the aim of documenting and preserving the achievements and contributions of these players. This approach ensures that the names of players who represented significant moments in each country's football history are continuously remembered.

This system focuses on the most important and competitive international tournaments, rather than friendly matches or smaller competitions. By doing so, it accurately reflects each nation's top players and their accomplishments.

Cap (sport)

In sport, a cap is a player's appearance in a game at international level. The term dates from the practice in the United Kingdom of awarding a cap to every player in an international match of rugby football and association football. In the early days of football, the concept of each team wearing a set of matching shirts had not been universally adopted, so each side would distinguish itself from the other by wearing a specific sort of cap.
