The Paraguay national football team is gearing up for the 2026 World Cup with hopes of a standout performance, and one of its key players is Braian Ojeda. This 25-year-old midfielder, hailing from Itaugua, Paraguay, has proven to be a cornerstone for Orlando City in Major League Soccer (MLS). Ojeda is one of four MLS players on the Paraguay national football team's roster, alongside Andrés Cubas, Miguel Almirón, and Matías Galarza. His experience in the U.S. league makes him a vital player for Paraguay's aspirations in the World Cup. Ojeda joined Real Salt Lake in 2022 and quickly established himself as a reliable fixture in midfield, making 123 appearances and contributing 7 goals and 5 assists. In 2026, he was acquired by Orlando City, where he has started every match since joining. On the international stage, Ojeda has represented the Paraguay national football team 16 times since his debut in 2021, although he is still searching for his first goal for the national team. With his return to the national setup in 2025, Ojeda has become a regular in the squad, and his goal is to lead Paraguay on a deep run in the World Cup.
