The Israel Euro 2024 squad will come around sooner than you think, with Alon Hazan hoping to end the nation’s long wait to appear at a big finals.
It’s been more than 50 years since Israel made their last, and only, major tournament appearance at the 1970 World Cup; they have come close to qualifying for the Euros on a number of occasions, losing to Scotland in the play-offs last time around.
A strong Euro 2024 qualifying campaign so far has given the country real hope that they could make it to Germany next summer, though.
