Ivory Coast World Cup history
The Elephants reach their fourth World Cup in 2026 (after 2006, 2010 and 2014). Despite golden generations led by Didier Drogba, they have never escaped the group stage. Two-time and reigning Africa Cup of Nations champions (2024), they arrive as one of the continent's strongest sides.
What to know for 2026
- Qualified by winning CAF Group F under coach Emerse Fae, dropping only four points in 10 matches.
- Led by captain Franck Kessie and in-form winger Amad Diallo, with AFCON 2024 success fuelling belief.
- Drawn with Germany, Ecuador and Curacao; targeting a first-ever knockout run.
