Prince William meets with England's Euro 2024 squad before they travel to Germany for the tournament.
Prince William has met with England's Euro 2024 squad before they travel to Germany for the tournament.
The prince, who is the Football Association's president, met with the players and manager Gareth Southgate at England's St George's Park national football centre in Burton-upon-Trent. He presented shirts to the 26 players and delivered a speech, including some advice from his youngest child, six-year-old Prince Louis.
Prince William, an Aston Villa fan, told the players: "I was on the school run this morning with the children and I said, 'What shall I say to the England team today?'."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."Southgate's squad will depart for Germany later on Monday before their first group game against Serbia on Sunday.
