You didn’t just think that Euro 2020 competition was just to kick the ball, score, and win matches for the 24 teams with games in 12 European countries.
No! There must be something enticing for the managers as well as the players apart from the Euro 2020 trophy. And your guess is as right as mine. It’s the prize money that has increased to €371 million from €301 million (Euro 2016).
