Scheduled to be played last year, one of football's most awaited events was rescheduled for the summer of 2021 due to the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic that spread across the world. With less than 100 days to go for the event, most prominent teams have released their latest Euro 2020 kits as we look at the Germany away kit and the Spain away kit among others.

The quarter-finals of the event are set to take place on 2nd and 3rd July with two matches happening on both days across four different venues.

In other Euro 2020 news, The UEFA has asked all the hosting cities to give them stadium capacity guarantees by April.  The 12 hosts that are all set and prepared to host the upcoming Euro 2020 have been asked to share their assessment of the Coivd-19 situation and give UEFA minimum guarantee by putting forward their position across to the organiser.

UEFA does not want all the cities to wait until the last moment which could risk the cancellation of any matches and has thus asked the hosting cities along with their governing bodies to provide them with different scenarios. As uncertainty remains over the availability of fans in the stadium, UEFA has asked all the twelve cities to share their capacity ranging from 100 per cent to playing the matches behind closed doors.
