UEFA confirmed this week the expansion of squads for EURO 2024 from 23 to 26 players.

Teams must confirm to UEFA a list of a minimum of 23 players and a maximum of 26 by 7 June.
The tournament begins on Friday 14 June when host Germany play Scotland in Munich.
The final is set for Berlin’s Olympiastadion on Sunday 14 July.
