As the highly anticipated Euro 2024 final between England and Spain nears kickoff, Reuters reporters and editors in Germany have announced their picks for the tournament's best players. Goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili from Georgia has been a standout, delivering a tournament save rate of 78.9%, nearly doubling the saves of his nearest competitor.

Among the defenders, Dani Carvajal from Spain distinguishes himself not just for his defensive prowess but also for becoming Spain's oldest scorer at a Euros with his goal against Croatia. Other notable defenders include Virgil van Dijk of the Netherlands, Manuel Akanji of Switzerland, and England's Marc Guehi.

In midfield, Spain's Fabian Ruiz and France's N'Golo Kante have shone brightly, while England's Kobbie Mainoo has added a youthful spark to Gareth Southgate's squad. Forward Nico Williams has been instrumental for Spain, and Turkey's Arda Guler has shown skill beyond his years. Spain's teenage sensation Lamine Yamal completes the list, becoming the youngest scorer in Euros or World Cup history with a memorable strike against France.
