The squads for this summer’s Euro 2024 are gradually starting to be announced with just three weeks to go until the big kick-off on June 14.

A total of 24 teams will compete for European Championship glory in Germany, with several sides having revealed either their provisional squads or indeed their final list of 26 players.

Amongst them are pre-tournament favourites England, with the likes of Adam Wharton, Jarell Quansah and Curtis Jones joining the more established talent in their 33-man provisional squad.

The biggest threats to Gareth Southgate’s hopes of becoming just the second England men’s manager to win a major trophy come from France, Germany, Spain and Portugal, whilst tournament dark horses such as Netherlands, Croatia and Denmark will all fancy deep runs to the latter stages of the competition.

Scotland, meanwhile, are competing in back-to-back European Championships as Steve Clarke looks to guide his side into the knockout stages of a major competition for the first time in their history.

Here is your full team-by-team guide to every country taking part at Euro 2024.

Manager: Sylvinho

Star player: Armando Broja

Fixtures: Italy (June 15), Croatia (June 19), Spain (June 24)

Best result: Group stage (2016)

Albania, managed by former Arsenal and Manchester City player Sylvinho, topped their qualifying group ahead of the likes of Czechia and Poland to qualify for just their second-ever major tournament.

Euro 2016 saw Albania fail to advance from the group, but the Balkan country did finish the tournament on a high with a 1-0 win over Romania in their final game.

Austria

Manager: Ralf Rangnick

Star player: Konrad Laimer

Fixtures: France (June 17), Poland (June 21), Netherlands (June 25)

Best result: Round of 16 (2020)

Austria finished second in qualifying under former Manchester United interim manager Ralf Rangnick, but they look set to be without their captain and Real Madrid star David Alaba, who has missed the second part of the season with a ruptured ACL.

Their Round of 16 appearance at Euro 2020 was the furthest they have ever progressed in the competition, suffering an extra-time defeat to eventual champions Italy at Wembley.

Belgium

Manager: Domenico Tedesco

Star player: Kevin De Bruyne

Fixtures: Slovakia (June 17), Romania (June 22), Ukraine (June 26)

Best result: Runners-up (1980)

The Red Devils made light work of qualifying under their new Italian-German manager Domenico Tedesco to seal their place at their third consecutive Euros.

Quarter-finalists in the previous two editions, Belgium will be hoping for a deeper run this time around, with a squad which is perhaps lacking some of the stardust of their golden generation in recent years but one which still possesses extreme quality – as well as a number of exciting youngsters.

Croatia

Manager: Zlatko Dalić

Star player: Luka Modrić

Forwards: Ivan Perisic (Hajduk Split), Andrej Kramaric (Hoffenheim), Bruno Petkovic (Dinamo Zagreb), Marko Pjaca (Rijeka), Ante Budimir (Osasuna), Marco Pasalic (Rijeka)

Perennially the tournament dark horses, Croatia will be desperate to finally claim their first-ever major trophy having finished as runners-up at the 2018 World Cup and in the 2023 Nations League, as well as a third-place finish at the last World Cup in Qatar.

Captain Luka Modric will be featuring in his ninth major international tournament, with a number of his veteran teammates also likely to be playing in their swansong competition.

Czechia

Manager: Ivan Hašek

Star player: Patrik Schick

Fixtures: Portugal (June 18), Georgia (June 22), Turkey (June 26)

Manager: Kasper Hjulmand

Star player: Rasmus Højlund

Fixtures: Slovenia (June 16), England (June 20), Serbia (June 25)

Best result: Winners (1992)

Denmark, who were beaten by England in the semi-finals of Euro 2020, qualified for this year’s edition as Group H winners.

The Danes pulled off one of the biggest shocks in football history when they won Euro 92, having only qualified after Yugoslavia was disqualified because of an outbreak of war following the break-up of the country.

England

Qualification was never really in doubt for England, who completed the double over Italy and picked up four points against Ukraine.

Despite an underwhelming March international break, and injury concerns hanging over numerous members of their squad, England should make relatively light work of their group with Italy, France and Spain potentially awaiting on their side of the draw later in the competition.

France

Manager: Didier Deschamps

Les Blues were beaten finalists in their home tournament in 2016, but recovered from the disappointment to win the the World Cup two years later.

Georgia

Manager: Willy Sagnol

Star player: Khvicha Kvaratskhelia

Fixtures: Turkey (June 18), Czechia (June 22), Portugal (June 26)

Best result: N/A

Georgia finished fourth in qualifying, but their performances in the Nations League saw them granted a play-off berth.

The Black Sea country secured their spot at their first ever major tournament as an independent nation with a penalty shootout win over Greece. Napoli star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia will undoubtedly be one of the players to watch at Euro 2024.

Germany

Manager: Julian Nagelsmann

Star player: Jamal Musiala

Fixtures: Scotland (June 14), Hungary (June 19), Switzerland (June 23)

Forwards: Maximilian Beier (Hoffenheim), Niclas Fullkrug (Borussia Dortmund), Kai Havertz (Arsenal), Thomas Muller (Bayern Munich), Deniz Undav (Stuttgart)

Germany, who qualified automatically as hosts, parted company with former manager Hansi Flick in September 2023 after just four wins in 17 matches.

Results have still been mixed under Julian Nagelsamnn, who is in charge until the end of the tournament, but they still possess the quality to win their first European Championship for 28 years.

Hungary

Having gone 44 years without qualifying for the Euros, Hungary have now made it to their third tournament in succession and boast Liverpool star Dominik Szoboszlai amongst their ranks.

Hungary gave a decent account of themselves at Euro 2020, registering two draws in a group consisting of France, Germany and Portugal, but that ultimately wasn’t enough to stop them finishing bottom of the pile.

Italy

Manager: Luciano Spalletti

Star player: Nicolò Barella

Fixtures: Albania (June 15), Spain (June 20), Croatia (June 24)

Best result: Winners (1968, 2020)

Italy are the defending champions having beaten England in the final on penalties three years ago but will face a fight to qualify for the knockouts with Spain and Croatia also in Group B.

The Azzurri, who saw Roberto Mancini resign halfway through the qualifying campaign, finished as runners-up to the Three Lions, securing their spot at Euro 2024 with a draw against Ukraine on the final matchday.

The Dutch finished second behind France in qualifying and they will pose a real danger in Germany, with their squad packed full of immense talent with the likes of Virgil Van Dijk, Frenkie de Jong and Xavi Simons.

Ronald Koeman is in his second spell in charge, having won the tournament as a player back in 1988 – their sole major honour to date.

Poland

Star player: Robert Lewandowksi

Fixtures: Netherlands (June 16), Austria (June 21), France (June 25)

Best result: Quarter-finals (2016)

Poland could only manage a distant third to Albania and Czechia in qualifying, and as such they had to settle for a spot in the play-offs to keep their Euro 2024 hopes alive.

Having dispatched Estonia 5-1 in the play-off semi-final, the Poles edged out Wales on penalties following a 0-0 draw after extra-time to qualify for their fifth consecutive major tournament.

Portugal

Best result: Winners (2016)

Portugal were the only team to finish qualifying with a perfect record, winning all ten of their games with 36 goals scored and just two conceded in the process.

Now managed by former Belgium manager Roberto Martinez, Portugal will be hoping for a fairytale send-off for Cristiano Ronaldo, who will be playing in his 11th – and surely last – major international tournament.

Squad

Goalkeepers: Diogo Costa (Porto), Jose Sa (Wolves), Rui Patricio (AS Roma)

Defenders: Antonio Silva (Benfica), Danilo Pereira (Paris St Germain), Diogo Dalot (Man Utd), Goncalo Inacio (Sporting), Joao Cancelo (Barcelona), Nelson Semedo (Wolves), Nuno Mendes (PSG), Pepe (Porto), Ruben Dias (Man City)

Scotland, who will have to make do without the impressive Bologna midfielder Lewis Ferguson due to injury, have never qualified from their group at a major tournament and their attempts to put their sorry record to bed will most likely be determined by the crunch clashes against Switzerland and Hungary.
