Gareth Southgate handed boost as UEFA consider major Euro 2024 rule change
UEFA are strongly considering expanding the squad sizes for Euro 2024 from 23 players to 26 – much to Gareth Southgate’s approval.
With just under two months to go before this summer’s European championships kicks-off in Germany, teams are advocating to make two major rule changes.
Sky Sports report that several countries want the deadline for naming their squads – which is currently midnight on Friday, 7 June – delayed.
That is because the last round of pre-tournament friendlies take place that evening, including England vs Iceland and Scotland vs Finland, giving teams little time to assess any sudden injuries or make necessary changes.
