SOME of the world’s most talented youth will be on show as the Under-21s Euros returns to the big screens – and all eyes will be on England!
Cole Palmer’s deflected free-kick followed by James Trafford’s incredible penalty save in stoppage time fired the Young Lions to a memorable Euro 2023 title win.

It was a historic night for the nation as the 1-0 victory against Spain U21 in the final ended England’s 39 year trophy drought.
Since then, several members of that Young Lions squad have made the step up to the seniors as a reward.
This has paved the way for players such as Jude Bellingham’s talented little brother Jobe and Arsenal starlet Ethan Nwaneri to try and win back-to-back titles for their country.
However, Spain in particular will be desperate to avenge what happened during the thrilling Euro 2023 showpiece match and become the most successful country in the competition.
But Italy, Germany and Portugal are all determined to get their hands on the huge crown too.
There has also been a huge shock in the England camp as Chelsea’s £30million summer signing Liam Delap has NOT made the cut.
