Cristiano Ronaldo, the highest international goal-scorer of all time, will headline the Portugal football team for a sixth consecutive time.

Two-time champions and 2022 FIFA World Cup finalists France will be one of the front-runners for the title from Group D with forward Kylian Mbappe leading the frontline.
England will also look to go one step better in 2024 and end their continental title drought with marksman Harry Kane leading a strong squad. The Three Lions lost to Italy in the final four years ago on penalties.
