England players have been quoted around £1500 per ticket to the Euro 2024 final as part of their friends and family admission packages for the tournament.
Mail Sport understands that the squad have been allocated six free tickets for each England match throughout their stay here in Germany but with the option of purchasing an extra six to take their total to 12.
The price for the six extra tickets increase according to the stage of the tournament England reach, with entry into the final in Berlin on July 14 to cost in the region of £1500 each.
It means the players will have a full allocation of 312 tickets per game for the European Championships.
Head coach Gareth Southgate, his back room staff and England support team will also likely be provided an allocation of tickets.

Families, in particular their wives and girlfriends (WAGS), have become headline news during tournaments football amid a frenzy for publicity for those close to the players.

But this year a number of families are choosing to fly in and out of Germany, traveling in only for matches, a development which is expected to reduce the possibility of the sort of high-profile circus that has become part and parcel of England in major international tournaments.
At World Cup 2006, the WAGS - led by Victoria Beckham and Cheryl Cole - dominated the headlines before England crashed out to Portugal on penalties in the quarter finals.
