The list had to be submitted to UEFA by midnight on June 1st.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the European federation decided that this time, the teams could consist of 26 players (in the past 23), while a 23-man-squad should be picked for every match.

“Before the June 14 clash against Slovakia, we can make any number of substitutions of players in the event of serious injury, including the case of COVID-19 or the necessity of isolation of a given player due to the coronavirus,” explained Jakub Kwiatkowski, the spokesman of the team.

However, throughout the tournament – in the event of an injury to one of the three goalkeepers – it will be possible to appoint an additional goalkeeper.

UEFA Euro 2020 starts on June 11. Poland will play their games on June 14, 19 and 23 June, respectively against Slovakia, Spain and Sweden. The final will take place on July 11 at Wembley, London.
