The UEFA Executive Committee has approved this Tuesday a series of special measures for
Euro 2020 in the

However, UEFA specifies that
the maximum number of players that can be registered for each match will be 23
, in accordance with rule 3 of the IFAB (International Board) Laws of the Game, which allows a maximum of 12 substitutes to be named. , including three goalkeepers.
Once
each team presents the list on June 1
, the regulations allow an unlimited number of substitutions in the relationship in case of injury or serious illness before the first match, provided that the substitutes have the corresponding medical certification.
Footballers who tested positive or who were declared as 'close contacts' of a person who has tested positive for COVID-19 (therefore placed in isolation) are considered cases of serious illness and, therefore, can be replaced earlier of the first match with the approval of the UEFA administration.
