England will be aiming to go one step further than at Euro 2020 where they were beaten in the final by Italy.

Who has missed out?

Norway are among the biggest absentees from this year's finals, with Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard forced to stay at home.

The Premier League superstars missed out on the World Cup in Qatar and were powerless to stop a similar fate for the Euros after finishing behind Spain and Scotland in qualifying.

Their Scandinavian rivals Sweden will also be absent, with Newcastle striker Alexander Isak, Tottenham winger Dejan Kulusevski, and Manchester United's Victor Lindelof without a ticket.

Both Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland will also stay at home after dismal qualifying.
