Cheer on the Three Lions! Prince William will fly to Germany to watch England's Euros clash with Denmark next week

Prince William will attend England's Euro 2024 match against Denmark at the Frankfurt Arena in Germany on June 20, Kensington Palace confirmed today.

The visit by the Prince of Wales, who is the president of the Football Association, comes after he met the England team during a visit to St George's Park on Monday.

It is not known whether William will be joined by any of his children, but his wife Kate is likely to remain at their home in Windsor while her cancer treatment continues.

On Monday, England captain Harry Kane said he expected William would be in touch with the squad during the tournament and planned to fly over to support them.

A Kensington Palace spokesman said this afternoon: 'The Prince of Wales, president of the Football Association, will attend the UEFA Euro 2024 group stage match between England and Denmark at Frankfurt Arena on Thursday 20th June, 2024.'

Speaking on Monday, Kane said of William: 'He loves it. I think he's going to try to get out for some games if possible if the schedule allows. He's a big football fan.

'I think he's made that pretty clear watching Aston Villa and watching England now. He'll be watching them. 

'His kids are obviously big fans as well, now. They'll remember their first, second tournament as I did when I was younger.

'He'll be in touch, especially with the manager and some of the players and making sure that we're doing a good job.'

Kane was speaking after William visited the team at St George's Park to wish them good luck, sharing advice from Prince Louis to 'eat twice the amount' during their bid for Euro 2024 glory.

William travelled to England's national football centre in Burton upon Trent to meet the squad and head coach Gareth Southgate.

In a rallying speech to the players, the prince said: 'I was on the school run this morning with the children and I said 'What shall I say to the England team today?'.

'The best bit of advice I got to ask you was to eat twice the amount you normally would eat.

'So I then had visions of all of you running around with massive great tummies and loads of stitches on the pitch so I think maybe take my youngest's advice with a pinch of salt.'

Kane jokingly said of Louis' advice: 'We've got to be careful with that one. I don't think our nutritionist will be happy with that.'

Heir to the throne William was there to present shirts to each of the 26 players selected for the Euro 2024 team and hear from Southgate about their preparations for the tournament.

The prince shook hands with Southgate, remarking how 'in a few hours' the squad was 'getting ready to go' and head to Germany.

The prince told the whole squad he 'will be watching every single game' in the Euros tournament.

William said: 'Tournament football is a big deal. All of you have had fantastic seasons, I've seen every single one of you play this season.

'As some of you know way better than anyone else in this room, tournament football is brutal. It requires a lot more than you've already given.

'It's going to be difficult, it's going to be fun, it's going to be challenging, it's going to be everything that you ever dreamed of wearing that England shirt

'You're a unit, you fight for each other, you play for each other'.

England, who were beaten 1-0 by Iceland in their final warm-up friendly last Friday, are preparing for their Group C opener against Serbia this Sunday.

Schoolchildren from across the Midlands were invited to St George's Park to attend a festival of football featuring friendly fixtures, to mark England's send-off. 

William is a passionate Aston Villa fan who often takes his son Prince George to see games.

The England Men's team reached the final of Euro 2020 only to lose on penalties to Italy, while they were eliminated by France in the quarter-finals of the 2022 World Cup.

The Euro 2024 tournament begins in Germany on Friday.
