Fairly certain Gary Breen was "unaffiliated" when he went to the WC in 2002. I believe he left Coventry at the end of the season prior to the competition.

Can clearly remember them talking about it during the WC about him not having a club and from the Guardian:
UNATTACHED PLAYERS AT THE WORLD CUP
"According to Fifa's official squad lists Australia's Craig Moore doesn't have a club and nor do two New Zealand players," writes Sam Allan. "Would they be the first unattached players to appear at a World Cup?"
No is the short answer. The long answer, if you're the Knowledge inbox this week is: Gary Breen, Gary Breen, Gary Breen, Gary Breen, Gary Breen, Gary Breen, Gary Breen, Gary Breen, Gary Breen. The centre-half was between clubs at the 2002 World Cup, his contract with Coventry City having expired. He joined West Ham after the tournament.

COVENTRY CITY have released 11 players, including the World Cup-bound Gary Breen.
The Republic of Ireland international has rejected the offer of a fresh contract from The Sky Blues and will be hoping to impress in the Far East, as he searches for pastures new.
