Building on decades of development, they have remained a competitive side in European football, regularly challenging for qualification to major tournaments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"2012\"\u003eThis era has been shaped by key figures such as Arda Turan, Burak Yılmaz, Hakan Çalhanoğlu, Nuri Şahin and Volkan Babacan, who played key roles in maintaining Turkey’s presence on the international stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2014\" data-end=\"2128\"\u003eIn 2016, Turkey wore a bold red home shirt, featuring black detailing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2130\" data-end=\"2329\"\u003eHowever, their path to the tournament proved challenging.

To do so, they must first overcome Romania, before facing either Slovakia or Kosovo for a place at the 2026 World Cup - so it certainly won’t be straightforward, but being the highest ranking side out of the 4, they will fancy their chances!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2331\" data-end=\"2827\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEven if they fail to qualify for World Cup 2026, \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTurkey have been named as a co-host for Euro 2032 and will qualify automatically as a result.
