India has confirmed its final 22-man squad for the Unity Cup 2026 after it was hit by the withdrawal of seven Mohun Bagan SG players.
“Mohun Bagan SG recalled their players from the national team camp in Bengaluru only hours before their scheduled travel to the United Kingdom, which meant India had to fly with the remaining 17 players on Sunday,” AIFF said in a statement on Tuesday.

In their place, four players have been added to the squad. Macarton Nickson and Nikhil Barla linked up with the team on Tuesday afternoon, while Mohammed Sanan and Vikram Partap Singh will arrive in London on Wednesday morning.
