Sheraldo Becker to Captain Suriname Team in Qualifiers Against Panama and El Salvador

Suriname head coach Stanley Menzo has revealed his 23-man squad for the upcoming CONCACAF Final Round qualifiers for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, according to PanamaGol.com. The team will play against Panama on September 4 and then face El Salvador on September 8.

A key player in the lineup is Sheraldo Becker, a 30-year-old forward from Real Sociedad, who is expected to lead Suriname’s offense. With experience in both the Bundesliga and LaLiga, Becker adds significant skill to the team.

The squad includes several players based in Europe, such as Anfernee Dijksteel (Middlesbrough), Jean-Paul Boëtius (Hertha Berlin), and Kenneth Paal (Queens Park Rangers). Menzo aims to combine experienced professionals with new talent to ensure both solid defense and creativity in attack.

These matches in September are vital for Suriname’s hopes of progressing from Group A in the critical stage of CONCACAF World Cup qualifying. With Becker at the forefront and a robust supporting team, Suriname aims to compete strongly against two of the region’s toughest opponents.
