Well let me explain. So these are my 4 reasons why I think France will win Euro 2024. They have the best player in the world, Kylian Mbappe, who has 43 goals this season (at time of writing).They also have Didier Deschamps, arguably the best international manager in the world right now having reached 2 consecutive World Cup finals and winning it in 2018. The French side is one of the in-form teams at the competition as they have won 4 of their last 6 games (at time of writing). France has also beaten the other tournament favourites the last time they met (England with 4/1 odds) at the 2022 World Cup 2-1. So whether its the Olympics or the Euros, its France all the way this summer!!Erefti Abraham Year 1232'
