Guess the World Cup Star: Daily Football Quiz No 38

Short overview
BBC Sport launches a daily 'Who am I?' football quiz. Players guess a mystery footballer using clues, scoring points for fewer attempts. Today's quiz features a World Cup star, with clues by Adam Millington.
BBC Sport has launched a daily interactive football quiz titled 'Who am I?', challenging fans to identify a mystery footballer using progressively revealed clues. The game, now in its 38th edition, is designed to test knowledge of World Cup stars and other prominent players.
How the Quiz Works
The rules are straightforward: each day, a new footballer is selected, and participants must guess their identity in as few attempts as possible. After each incorrect guess, a new clue is unlocked. The fewer clues needed, the higher the score. A score of three is considered good, while four or five points is exceptional. Players are encouraged to return daily for new challenges.
Today's Clues and Participation
Today's player and clues have been set by BBC Sport's Adam Millington. Fans can access the quiz on the BBC Sport website and app. For those seeking more quizzes, BBC Sport offers dedicated Football Quizzes and Sports Quizzes pages, where users can sign up for notifications to receive the latest quizzes directly to their device.
