Gary Neville, Roy Keane and Graeme Souness are among the names confirmed as ITV pundits for the 2022 World Cup.

The Sky Sports regulars will provide expert analysis for next month's highly-anticipated tournament in Qatar.

Neville and Keane got into a heated debate over Cristiano Ronaldo following Chelsea vs. Manchester United and fans can expect the same passion during the World Cup.

Souness, who has teamed up with talkSPORT, is also not afraid to speak his mind as he argued with Simon Jordan over the sacking of Steven Gerrard.

Not to mention former Manchester City star Nigel de Jong, Eni Aluko, Karen Carney and Nadia Nadim.

Mark Pougatch, Laura Woods and Seema Jaswal are part of the presenting team while commentary will come from Sam Matterface, Clive Tyldesley, Jon Champion, Seb Hutchinson, Joe Speight and Tom Gayle - supported by co-commentators Lee Dixon, Ally McCoist, John Hartson and Andros Townsend.

Reporting on the tournament will be Gabriel Clarke, Michelle Owen and Celina Hinchcliffe.

Ex-Premier League referee Peter Walton will also be on hand to explain key on-field decisions.

ITV will air 32 live matches, beginning with Senegal vs. Netherlands and USA vs. Wales on Monday, November 21

ITV will broadcast England's second game of the tournament on Friday, November 25 against USA.

On what he's most looking forward to about the World Cup, Neville said: "I would definitely say the Group Phase. Having experienced the World Cup for the first time in Russia, those first 10 days when all the fans are there mingling together, is the most special atmosphere.

"It’s something I’ve not experienced before having only ever played in World Cups and as a player you are almost hidden away from all this excitement of the fan experience."

Keane added: "The amount of games. Obviously, I’m a football fan and managed to play in a World Cup in 1994. It’s always exciting - who's going to turn up, who's not going to turn up."
