The NFL confirmed the designated home teams for their games in London, as well as the clash in Germany.

NFC North rivals the Chicago Bears and Minnesota Vikings will stage home games at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The Jacksonville Jaguars, meanwhile, will return to Wembley Stadium in 2024.

The Jags will play their 12th game in London having visited twice last year.

Jacksonville won both of those fixtures – a home game against the Atlanta Falcons at Wembley and an away clash against the Buffalo Bills at Tottenham.

Dates and opponents for the games will be announced at a later date.

NFL has played regular-season games in London dating back to 2007.

Last year there were three games on back-to-back weekends in October across Wembley and Spurs.

American football also headed to Frankfurt for two games in as many weekends in November.

This year there will be one Germany game – a return to Munich which hosted a game in 2022.

The Carolina Panthers have been confirmed as the home team for the 2024 game at Bayern Munich’s Allianz Arena.

The NFL also announced they will play a game in Brazil during the 2024 season.

The game at Corinthians Arena in Sao Paulo marks a first foray into South America for the NFL.

There is still no game in Mexico City, as was the case last year, due to stadium renovations ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
