England confirm final fixtures before Euro 2024

England have announced they will take on Bosnia & Herzegovina and Iceland in a pair of friendlies as part of their final preparations for Euro 2024.

The Three Lions will host two matches in June prior to flying out to Germany for the tournament finals and have confirmed their opposition.

Bosnia & Herzegovina are up first at St James' Park on Monday 3 June in the first ever meeting between the two nations, while this will be England's first match at the home of Newcastle United since March 2005.

Gareth Southgate's side will then return to Wembley on Friday 7 June to host Iceland in their last friendly before Euro 2024.

Speaking to England Football's website, Southgate spoke of his delight at the Three Lions returning to play football in Newcastle.

"We’re really looking forward to taking the team back to the North East and to a city that is synonymous with football in this country," he said.

"We will follow that with another special occasion at Wembley allowing our fans the opportunity to give us a final send off before we head to Germany for another exciting summer. Both opponents in June are sure to provide stiff competition and play an important part in our preparation for the tournament."

Both Bosnia & Herzegovina and Iceland are hoping to join England at this summer's finals but will need to secure their spot via the play-offs in March.

England will kick off their Euro 2024 campaign against Serbia in Gelsenkirchen on Sunday 16 June. They will then face Denmark in Frankfurt on Thursday 20 June and round off the group stage in Cologne against Slovenia on Tuesday 25 June.

The Three Lions return to action in March with a pair of friendlies at Wembley against Brazil and Belgium.
