Two English referees, Michael Oliver and Anthony Taylor, will be heading to Germany this summer.
Oliver joined UEFA’s group of officials back in 2018, and he took charge of games at Euro 2020 and the World Cup in 2022.
Taylor, meanwhile, also refereed at those two tournaments, and the 45-year-old was praised for his handling of the Finland v Denmark match at Euro 2020, which saw Christian Eriksen collapse on the pitch.

We’ve mentioned the two English referees, Oliver and Taylor, but who will be joining the Premier League regulars at Euro 2024?
Szymon Marciniak from Poland is one of the most experienced referees heading to Germany, with the 43-year-old taking charge of numerous big games. He was in the middle for the 2022 World Cup final and the 2023 Champions League final between Manchester City and Inter Milan. He could be in charge of this summer’s final.
