Who will get medals if England win Euro 2020 final

England's victory over Denmark sealed progression to their first final at a major competition since the 1966 World Cup.

It is a moment that fans of the Three Lions have long been dreaming of. However, the job is not complete, as Italy stand in their way of lifting the famous Henri Delaunay Cup on Sunday evening.

Gareth Southgate's squad will hope to have a Euro 2020 winners medal placed around their neck, rather than have the heartbreak of receiving the dreaded silver medal.

Should England end 55 years of hurt, they will receive 40 gold medals to distribute among players and staff meaning every one of Gareth Southgate's playing squad, plus 14 staff members, will be awarded a medal.

If Italy beat England in front of their own supporters at Wembley, then 40 silver medals will be distributed out between the home squad.

The trophy which is presented to the winning team after the final, remains in UEFA's keeping after the ceremony with the victors taking home a full-size replica which cannot leave the association's country without UEFA's prior written consent.
