Four Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham youngsters have one final chance to impress their respective managers at the Under-21 European Championships before returning for pre-season. England will lock horns with Spain in the final of the tournament on Saturday, July 8, at 17:00 BST as both nations eye silverware.
The Three Lions head into tie following a composed win over Israel, and they'll be hoping to make history after reaching their first final in 14 years. As for La Rojita, they booked a place in the final after waltzing past Ukraine 5-1 and they'll be looking to make it four trophies from their previous seven championships.
Until now, the tournament has been shown online by UEFA. Channel 4 have secured the exclusive television rights to broadcast the Under-21 Euros final despite tough competition from the BBC.
In an official statement, Channel 4's Chief Content Officer Ian Katz said: "Channel 4 has brought a number of historic sporting moments to a free to air audience in recent years and we're delighted that the nation will be able to watch England's Under-21s as they attempt to make their own bit of history against Spain on Saturday.
"The Young Lions final will be part of a bumper weekend of sport on Channel 4 with live coverage of qualifying for the British GP earlier on Saturday and the Grand Prix itself on Sunday."
With the Under-21 Euros final on national TV and free to watch, Emile Smith Rowe, Noni Madueke, Levi Colwill and Olivier Skipp have the perfect chance to leave a lasting impression ahead of the new season. The former will be desperate to prove to Mikel Arteta that he's worthy of a starring role this season as Arsenal prepare for their first Champions League campaign in seven years.
Meanwhile, the Chelsea duo will be hoping that they can impress new boss Mauricio Pochettino. Madueke and Colwill are both expected to play major roles at Stamford Bridge in the coming years, but Raheem Sterling and Benoit Badiashile will be just as keen to keep their respective places in the starting lineup.
