Iceland Squad to Russia 2018

Iceland head coach Heimir Hallgrimsson has named the country's first-ever World Cup squad, including many of the players that were a part of the team that made it to the quarter-finals of UEFA EURO 2016.

One notable omission is Nantes forward and experienced national team player Kolbeinn Sigthorsson, who misses out as he has been struggling with a knee injury.
