From discreet leather carryalls to statement designer pieces, discover the luxury handbags shaping the off-pitch wardrobes of football’s biggest stars at the World Cup

The modern footballer’s style extends well beyond the pitch. As players arrive at stadiums, airports and team hotels around the world, their choice of handbag has become as closely watched as their footwear or tailoring. This year’s World Cup has offered plenty of standout examples, from Eduardo Camavinga’s Hermès Haut à Courroies and Kylian Mbappé’s Dior A5 Triangle Pouch to Lamine Yamal’s Chanel tote and Declan Rice’s Goyard carryall. Whether understated or unmistakably bold, these bags reveal how today’s elite players are embracing luxury accessories as an essential part of their personal identity, blending athletic influence with contemporary fashion in ways that resonate far beyond the game.
