25th Arabian Gulf Cup squads
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 25th Arabian Gulf Cup was an international football tournament held in Iraq from 6 to 19 January 2023. The eight national teams involved in the tournament were required to register a squad with a minimum of 18 players and a maximum of 23 players, at least three of whom had to be goalkeepers. Only players in these squads were eligible to take part in the tournament.
The age listed for each player is as of 6 January 2023, the first day of the tournament. The numbers of caps and goals listed for each player do not include any matches played after the start of the tournament. The nationality for each club reflects the national association (not the league) to which the club is affiliated. A flag is included for coaches that are of a different nationality than their own national team.
