Footie-loving Prince William to cheer on the Lionesses next month at Euros in Switzerland

PRINCE William is aiming to fly to Switzerland next month to cheer on the Lionesses as they defend their Euros crown.

The footie-loving royal is throwing his support behind the national women’s team — just as in 2022 when he was at Wembley to watch them win the title.

Wills will attend at least one group game to watch Sarina Wiegman’s side, maybe more depending on his royal commitments.

Their first Group D game is against France in Zurich on July 5.

They then play the Netherlands in the same city on July 9 and Wales in St Gallen on July 13.

A spokesman for William said: “He is looking forward to supporting the team and wishing them good luck.”

The Prince of Wales — who is patron of the FA — is also set to meet the squad in person to give them his best wishes before they depart for the tournament.

Wills is often seen supporting the men’s and women’s national sides, and his beloved Aston Villa.

He was pictured experiencing the highs and lows of the England men’s Euros final loss last year.

And speaking to the women’s squad last year, he revealed of daughter Charlotte: “She wants me to tell you she’s really good in goal . . . a budding star.”

England are reigning Euro champions but endured an unsettling few weeks with the retirement of stars Mary Earps and Fran Kirby.

While 88-cap defender Millie Bright pulled out on the eve of the squad announcement.
