Referees at Euro 2024: Full guide plus English officials

English referees Michael Oliver and Anthony Taylor have been selected as part of a group of 19 officials who will take charge of the 51 matches at the 2024 European Championship in Germany.

Oliver’s assistants will be Stuart Burt and Dan Cook, while Taylor is aided by Gary Beswick and Adam Nunn.

Adding to the English contingent, Stuart Attwell and David Coote have been picked in the 20-strong pool of video assistant referees (VAR).

As at Euro 2020, there will be a referee from South America officiating at Euro 2024 as part of the ‘co-operation between Uefa and the South American Football Confederation (Conmebol)’. Argentina’s Facundo Tello has been handed the honour and will be assisted by fellow countrymen Gabriel Chade and Ezequiel Brailovsky.

Attwell and Taylor were named on Uefa’s officials list just two days after being pilloried by relegation-threatened Nottingham Forest for a failure to award three penalties in their defeat to Everton. So enraged were Forest at Taylor (referee) and Attwell (VAR) that they took to social media after the game to question the integrity of the Premier League and went as far as to suggest that Attwell was a fan of relegation rivals Luton. You can watch all three incidents here.

Oliver and Taylor have become the go-to English officials at major international tournaments, having overseen matches at Euro 2020 and the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

England, France, Germany and Italy will have two referees at the Euros, with one from the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and Argentina.

Scotland have no referees, assistants or VARs at the Euros.
