On June 11, 2026, the opening match of the 2026 World Cup will take place at the Azteca Stadium in Mexico City, and now the official mascots for the tournament are apparently set. According to reports from 'TheAthletic', there will be three different mascots, one for each host country.

A bald eagle, a jaguar, and a moose have been chosen to represent the three host countries and are also outfitted in their national colors.

  • Clutch (Bald Eagle – United States): The bald eagle in a blue jersey has been the national symbol of the country since 1782. The mascot, described as a midfielder, stands for curiosity and optimism and is portrayed as a social factor meant to bring people together.
  • Zayu (Jaguar – Mexico): The jaguar, dressed in a green jersey, is a forward whose name is associated with unity, strength, and joy. The figure refers to the great significance the jaguar had for ancient Mexican civilizations like the Maya, who associated it with the underworld and regarded it as a symbol of courage and strength.
  • Maple (Moose – Canada): The moose, wearing the red jersey, is a goalkeeper representing Canada and is inspired by the maple leaf, the national symbol of Canada. FIFA's description portrays him as an artist and music lover, with a focus on creativity and endurance.
