City players to star in Euro 2024 showpiece

Sunday's Euro 2024 final will see some of the finest footballers on the planet go head to head. But one club is likely to see more starters than any other.

Manchester City.

Kyle Walker, John Stones and Phil Foden are expected to be among the England line-up selected by Gareth Southgate, while it would be a huge shock if Rodri does not start for Spain.

Technically, Real Sociedad could have the most players feature during the game, thogh many of their five Spanish representatives - Alex Remiro, Robin le Normand, Mikel Merino, Martin Zubimendi and Mikel Oyarzabal - are expected to start on the bench.

Real Madrid will almost certainly have two starters in Jude Bellingham and Dani Carvajal - and, although they have left this summer, Joselu and Nacho might be claimed by the La Liga giants.

Barcelona and Arsenal have four and Athletic Bilbao and Chelsea three among the teams.

A European Championship winner wearing sky blue next season is guaranteed and all players involved in the final will return to pre-season later than others after their progression through the tournament.

As a result, Walker, Stones, Foden and Rodri will not go on the pre-season tour to the United States.
