FIFA have released their Men’s World Rankings for the month of July, after the conclusion of the continental competitions of the summer. Copa America and World Cup winners Argentina remain the number one team in the world as per the latest rankings.
World Cup runners-up France are in second place, while Euro 2024 winners Spain have jumped five places to earn third spot in the rankings. England, after finishing runners-up behind Spain in the Euros, have climbed up one place to become fourth. Brazil, on the other hand, are fifth.

Belgium, Portugal, Netherlands, Colombia and Italy complete the top ten countries in the world. Colombia made it to the finals of the Copa America and put up a tough fight against Argentina, but were undone by a late goal from Lautaro Martinez in AET.
India are 124th in the Men’s World Rankings, retaining their spot after failing to qualify for Round 3 of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Qualifiers. The AIFF has since parted ways with head coach Igor Stimac and is looking for a new face to lead the new generation.
