ITV will also show England’s final group game against Slovenia and will have picks one, two and three of the Round of 16 as well as first pick of the Semi-finals.

For those watching Euro 2024 from home, the popular Mark Pougatch and Laura Woods will be presenting their coverage.

But it is the array of pundits that armchair supporters have been looking forward to discovering the most.

And, just like fans of the BBC earlier, ITV certainly have not disappointed with both Manchester United legends Roy Keane and Gary Neville signed up.

Arsenal icon Ian Wright, who has just left his role on BBC’s Match of the Day, is also there along with the formidable Graeme Souness.

Ex-Lionesses stars Karen Carney and Eni Aluko are also included in the all-star cast.

And Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou will also make his debut in the studio for ITV along with Championship club Sheffield Wednesday’s German boss Danny Rohl.

And it will be Christina Unkel who will be tasked with explaining some of the on-field decisions in her role as ITV’s refereeing analyst.

Commentary will come from Sam Matterface, Clive Tyldesley, Seb Hutchinson, Pien Meulensteen and Joe Speight.

They will be supported by co-commentators Lee Dixon, Ally McCoist, and Andros Townsend.

Meanwhile, Gabriel Clarke will be reporting from the England camp, whose initial 33-man squad was revealed by Gareth Southgate yesterday, and Connie McLaughlin will be with the Scotland squad.

Celina Hinchcliffe will then be rounding up the news from the rest of the tournament.

Both live games and highlights will be broadcast on ITV1 and ITV4 and simulcast on ITVX, as well as across STV and STV Player.

They will be complemented by a range of bespoke content on ITV Football's platforms and on ITVX so wherever they are, viewers can immerse themselves in all the action from the tournament. 

ITV will also show what is likely to be one of the most anticipated early tournament games.

That will be when they screen the Group B showdown between Spain and holders Italy.

Much-fancied France vs Austria on June 17, 2016 winners Portugal vs Turkey on June 22, Croatia and Spain on June 15 plus Belgium vs Slovakia on June 17 are also on.

Niall Sloane, ITV Director of Sport, said: “This is a unique tournament in a fantastic setting and we have put together a multi-talented, high-profile team to offer viewers and fans cutting insight and compelling entertainment from what promises to be a festival of the game.

“ITV and ITVX’s live coverage, highlights shows, online and social media content, will capture all the action and all the talking points, so fans and viewers can immerse themselves in the tournament.”
