UEFA EURO 2024: Favourites, venues, teams, key players and prize money. All you need to know ahead of the European Championship in Germany
Gareth Southgate has named his provisional England squad for Euro 2024 and now it is Scotland's day of destiny.
Toni Kroos will bow out of football after Euro 2024 in his home country having enjoyed a glittering career spanning 17 years. "They are just as important to the squad as those two do as they control the harmony of the group and spend four, five, hopefully six weeks without too many minutes on the pitch.
"He deserves to be there, he's a different type of midfielder to what I've got so that was the thinking." "It feels like the right thing to do with the squad going from 23 to 26. It felt like the right thing to do." The former Sunderland and Celtic star won his first cap in 2004 - a year before Liverpool winger Doak was even born!
There were spots for Norwich’s Grant Hanley and Copenhagen’s Scott McKenna, who returned to action for their clubs before the season ended to give Scotland a big boost at the back. The teenager is regarded as one of the Tartan Army's biggest prospects but he hasn't played since mid-December following a knee injury and is uncapped at senior international level.That's the view of former England players Gabby Agbonlahor and Ashley Young, with the latter joining talkSPORT Drive in the studio to help mastermind the Three Lions' best possible line-up this summer.
England play again against Iceland four days after that, but Southgate is keen not to rush his arrival to camp. But having been overlooked by national team boss Didier Deschamps, Three Lions chief Southgate has revealed England should be interested.“That process would take quite a while. The 39-year-old - who is the most capped player in international football history - made his tournament debut at Euro 2004.Portugal boss Roberto Martinez said Ronaldo continued to offer "a quality in front of goal which we greatly appreciate and which we need".
"It was the start of a new chapter at the biggest club in the world. After 10 years, at the end of the season this chapter comes to an end. I will never forget that insolent successful time! Quintet Jarrad Branthwaite, Curtis Jones, Jarell Quansah, Adam Wharton and James Trafford will all be hoping to make their senior debuts in the two upcoming friendlies.
