Eriksen and Hojlund named in Denmark squad for Euro 2024

Manchester United duo Christian Eriksen and Rasmus Hojlund have been included in the Denmark squad for the European Championship in Germany this summer.

The Danes will face England, Serbia and Slovenia in Group C. Their opening game is against the latter on Sunday, June 16.

Kasper Hjulmand’s side will aim to pull off another surprise after winning the tournament in 1982. Furthermore, they will be looking to make the most of their qualification after doing to for back-to-back European Championships for the first time in 20 years.

Rasmus Hojlund will be jetting off to his first major international tournament, where it could be the last for Christian Eriksen. The 32-year-old midfielder is expected to leave United this summer.
