Vincenzo Montella’s preliminary 35-man Turkey roster for EURO 2024 includes three Serie A players: Zeki Celik, Hakan Calhanoglu, and Kenan Yildiz.
This summer, the competition is scheduled to take place in Germany from June 14 to July 14.
Turkey will take on Italy in a pre-competition friendly on June 4 before joining Georgia, Portugal, and the Czech Republic in their group.
The initial roster for EURO 2024 has been announced by their Italian coach, Montella, and will be reduced to just 26 players by June 7.
