Keylor Navas, Bryan Ruiz and Joel Campbell have all been named in Costa Rica’s final squad for the World Cup.

Real Madrid goalkeeper Navas played a key role in 2014 as his side surprisingly reached the quarter-final stage, where they were beaten on penalties by Netherlands.

Sporting CP’s Ruiz, who is two caps short of a century for his country, and Real Betis forward Campbell are the other most familiar names in Oscar Ramirez’s 23-man party.

There are six players from MLS, including Rodney Wallace of New York City and Marco Urena of Los Angeles FC, while Espanyol’s Oscar Duarte and Deportivo La Coruna’s Celso Borges are included.

Costa Rica face Serbia, Brazil and Switzerland in Group E of the tournament in Russia.
