Seven players in the squad will be appearing at their first World Cup.
Switzerland open their campaign against Cameroon on 24 November before facing Brazil and Serbia in Group G.
We were spoiled for choice in some positions.
Many players have delivered convincing performances in recent weeks and months. But in the end I had to limit myself to 26 names. I’m convinced that these 26 players can always help us to achieve our goals.
