Alongside predictions for who will win Euro 2024, just as anywhere else, there is always the prognosis of who will finish as the top scorer.
There will be many takers for the Golden Boot award in the tournament, while the likes of France, Spain, England and hosts Germany may be tipped as the favourites to win the 17th edition of the European Championship.
