On September 27, 2023, Germany held the final stage of the bidding with Turkey at the UEFA headquarters in Switzerland, and finally won the right to host the 2024 European Cup by 12 votes to 4 votes. This is the second time that Germany has hosted a major football event since the 2006 World Cup. After being awarded the right to host the tournament, Reinhard Glindel, president of the German Football Association, said that this is an important milestone of German football and a great responsibility of German football. They will do their utmost to provide a wonderful European Cup for fans and players all over Europe.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel also congratulated and looked forward to Germany's winning the right to host the event. She said in an interview: "This is a happy news. I am proud of the German Football Association and all those who participated in the bidding. The 2024 European Cup will be an opportunity to show German culture and sports. We will show our openness, diversity and inclusiveness to the world. This is also an opportunity to promote European solidarity and friendship. We will welcome fans and players from all countries to share the passion and happiness of football with them. "

There will be 24 teams participating in the 2024 European Cup. The matches will be held in 10 cities in Germany, namely Berlin, Munich, Dortmund, Stuttgart, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Leipzig, Dusseldorf, Cologne and Giessen. The opening ceremony and final will be held at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, a historic stadium with 74000 seats, which once hosted the 2006 World Cup final. The stadiums in other nine cities also have modern facilities and good transportation, which can provide fans and players with a comfortable and convenient experience.

They are also the champions of the 2014 World Cup, with rich experience and achievements in international competitions. Their national team is currently headed by Luff, who took over from Klinsmann after the 2006 World Cup and led the German team through 12 years of ups and downs. He said in an interview: "I am very happy that Germany can hold the 2024 European Cup, which is a huge incentive for our players and fans. We will try to present a wonderful European Cup for all on our own land, and strive for an ideal result for ourselves."

The qualifier of Euro 2024 will start in March 2023, when 55 UEFA member states will participate in the competition for seats in 24 final circles. Germany, as the host country, will automatically qualify for the finals. They will compete fiercely with 23 other teams for the highest honor in European football.
