Getting ready for Euro 2020
Spain international Sergio Ramos has said that he would like to end the 2019/2020 season on a high by going on to lift the European Championship title at the Wembley Stadium. The centre-back had a forgettable 2018/19 season for both club and country last term, but he is aiming to make amends as he embarks on another campaign.
Northern Ireland forward Stuart Dallas has said that the country’s never-say-die attitude can enhance their prospects of qualifying for Euro 2020. Michael O’Neill’s side have excelled with four straight wins to begin their qualifying campaign and this sees them at the top of their group until September at the least.
New Scotland manager Steve Clarke is determined to guide the nation to the European Championship next year after taking over at the helm. The experienced head coach recently guided Kilmarnock to European football after 18 years, and he has now been tasked with the job of helping Scotland qualify for their first major tournament since 1998.
Former Inter Milan star Dario Simic has praised the talents of Marcelo Brozovic and Ivan Perisic while stating the desire to see Luka Modric join them in the summer. The duo have been key performers for the Nerazzurri over the past few seasons and the club are currently on course to finish in the top four for the second season running.
England manager Gareth Southgate has heaped praise on Raheem Sterling, who was the star performer during the country’s 5-0 rout of the Czech Republic in the opening game of their Euro 2020 qualification. The attacker has looked lively for club and country over the course of the campaign and he continued his good run of form with a stunning hat-trick at the Wembley Stadium.
Hearts manager Craig Levein has urged Steven Naismith to resist the option of heading to Major League Soccer as that could squander his prospects of earning a berth with Scotland, should they qualify for Euro 2020. The veteran recently made a national team comeback after 18 months after the good form at Hearts and he managed to make amends with goals against Albania and Portugal.
