Euro 2024 is almost here, as the 17th edition of the UEFA European Championship heads to Germany.
The tournament, which runs from June 14-July 14, will bring together 24 countries from across Europe to do battle. Being played in the same months as CONMEBOL’s Copa America 2024
, the competition promises to be part of a feast of football over the coming weeks.
Italy will make the journey as the defending champions, having beaten England in the final of Euro 2020 — a tournament that was delayed by a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic — while the Three Lions will look to be in the shake-up once again and build on their strong qualifying campaign
.
The hosts, along with traditional powerhouses Spain, are bidding to win the title for a record fourth time.
Over the course of 31 days, those teams from the established footballing order, along with less familiar additions such as Albania and tournament debutants Georgia, will compete to be crowned the kings of Europe.
