According to The Standard, the squad will celebrate with a victory parade through London.

Preparations are currently at an advanced stage, with a route planned from Guildhall in the City of London to Buckingham Palace.

The likes of Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham will then be honoured by the King and the royal family.

It is understood the open-top bus parade will take place on Tuesday.

As many as one million fans could line the streets in celebration, as the parade passes Trafalgar Square and The Mall.

Meanwhile, the players have also been lined up to meet Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer at Downing Street on Monday.

You can say it hasn’t been pretty, but England are in the final… and we’re peaking at just the right time, says Jack Wilshere

AFTER what has been a tough tournament of times, what an opportunity Gareth Southgate and his team will have to end in the best possible way, writes Jack Wilshere.

We might like a team that played better football. But it’s a results business.

Germany, Italy, France, Portugal and of course Holland would love to be where we are.

People will say we’re lucky because we’re on this side of the draw.

But we won the group. France didn’t and then ran into Spain.

You can say it wasn’t that pretty, but we’re there.

Gareth and his coaches won’t have been happy with some of the performances.

But I did like the way Gareth and his team have dealt with it.

There was no panic coming out of the camp.

Everyone gave the same message: ‘We know we can better, but we’re here still.’

And on Sunday they will be in Berlin to play Spain.

They will probably have to produce two halves of football as good as the first against Holland to beat them.

We have improved as the tournament has gone on and that is how you win things.

You want to peak in the final.

If Gareth can lead England to that major trophy we’ve all been waiting for, it will be the perfect answer to the critics and a brilliant day for us all.

England are bidding to win their first major tournament since the 1966 World Cup and just their second overall.

Ollie Watkins’ last-minute strike against the Netherlands in Wednesday’s semi-final confirmed their place in the final.

In doing so, England repeated the feat from the last Euros in 2021, where they were beaten on penalties by Italy.

Southgate has also become the first manager to take the Three Lions to a major tournament final outside of England.
