Men's national team arrives in Germany for Euro 2024

Hungary's Euro 2024 squad trained at home in Telki on Monday morning, but by the evening they were eating dinner at their tournament headquarters in Weiler, Germany.

Forty-eight hours after Saturday's victory against Israel and the focus was still partly about regeneration, but national-team head coach Marco Rossi also led a training session in Telki which included work with footballs. Two players from the squad, Callum Styles and Loic Nego, have still not yet trained with the others.

After the training, the team's equipment and belongings were packed up and the players shared photos and autographs with children who had gathered to bid them farewell, some from winning teams in the McDonald's Fair Play Cup, some who were young footballers who'd participated in the OTP Bank Bozsik programme and the FETE Cup, organised annually in cooperation by MLSZ with the Hungarian Maltese Charity Service and featuring children who play football in deprived areas of the country.

Staff from the M4 Sport TV channel also journeyed to Telki for the farewell party, including former national-team players Ádám Bogdán and Attila Dragóner who interviewed players and other staff members.

Due to thunderstorms across Europe, the team's aeroplane travelling to the European Championship left Budapest after a slight delay and landed at Friedrichshafen airport shortly after 7:30pm CET, where a large group of local children was waiting for the delegation.

An hour later, the group arrived in Weiler Simmersberg where it was greeted by an even bigger crowd of locals.

On Tuesday afternoon, the national team will train in Weiler, and the first press conference of their stay in Germany will be held in the team's media centre.
