UEFA EURO 2024 tournament director Philipp Lahm said: "The draw is the first step for many teams aspiring to play at EURO 2024 in Germany. We are looking forward to an exciting draw and wish all the teams a fair and exciting competition to determine who is the best of the best in Europe"
Martin Kallen, the CEO of UEFA Events SA, added: "The qualifying draw and the final draw are two major international events in the run-up to the tournament. They help the teams to focus their training, fuel anticipation in Germany and make for excellent TV viewing. Owing to its location, experience and passion for events, Messe Frankfurt is the ideal venue.
