The team for Euro 2024 has not yet been determined, which needs to go through the preliminary contest. The preliminaries will be held from March 2022 to November 2023. A total of 55 European national teams will participate in the preliminaries, which will be divided into ten groups of five or six teams. Each group will play eight or ten games in a double cycle. After the qualifying match, the top two teams of each group will directly advance to Euro 2024, a total of 20 teams. The third place of the remaining 10 groups will enter the play off to compete with the four non qualifying teams with the best performance in the European National League. There are 12 teams in total, divided into three paths, four teams in each path, for semi-finals and finals. Each team plays two games.

The grouping draw of Euro 2024 will be held in Nuremberg, Germany, in December 2023. At that time, the teams will be divided into four grades according to the ranking of UEFA. Six teams in each grade will be allocated to six groups according to the result of the draw. As the host country, Germany will be directly assigned to Group A, and has the right to choose which stadium to play the group match in. Other teams will decide which stadium to play in the group match according to the result of the draw.

Euro 2024 is undoubtedly a feast of football and a cultural exchange. As a powerful country in European football, Germany has a rich football history and excellent football facilities, which will provide a perfect stage for the 2024 European Cup. In the summer of 2024, we are looking forward to seeing the strongest teams and players in Europe show their style on the German lawn and bring us another wonderful game after another.
