POLAND’S hottest football fan dubbed “Miss Euros” has revealed her prediction for England ahead of the tournament – including her favourite Three Lions star.
Model and football fan Marta Barczok has backed Gareth Southgate‘s exciting young squad to finally bring football home after decades of pain and misery at major tournaments.
The influencer has attended various tournaments in the past including Euro 2016 and 2020.
And she’s set to jet off to Germany in just days to be apart of another blockbuster summer of football.
Despite her supporting Poland and wanting them to steal the show by bringing home the illusive winner’s trophy, Marta also rates England‘s chances at European glory.
Harry Kane and co were just a trio of penalties away from winning the whole tournament in the rescheduled 2021 event as Italy managed to dash away the nation’s hopes.
But Marta feels they could finally conquer that final step this time around.
She told The Sun: “My favourite for this tournament is England – I believe they have a real chance of winning and I expect them to go far.”
She also revealed her favourite Three Lions star – captain and Bayern Munich top scorer Harry Kane.
Marta dubbed him “the best English player” – but has a sneaky feeling another man may steal the Euros spotlight just like in the past.
“However, I think the biggest star of this tournament will be Kylian Mbappe and I predict he will leave a significant mark on this Euro,” she said.
Marta says the Euros always provide three things to make them such special times – excitement, drama and unforgettable moments.
She added: “This time, the tournament is in Germany, which is great since it’s close by and I can get there quickly, though getting tickets wasn’t easy.
“The atmosphere at Euro is always electric, and I’m excited to be part of it again.
“It’s a great opportunity to explore some incredible German cities.
“And especially excited to visit Dortmund, home to the best stadium and most passionate fans.”
Marta was less hopeful about Poland’s chances, saying: “I think Poland will make it out of the group stage.
“But it will be tough due to several injuries in our squad.”
One of their biggest injuries is to main man Robert Lewandowski who is set to miss their crunch clash with the Netherlands.
Defender Pawel Dawidowicz and striker Karol Swiderski are also out for the opening match.

Marta is still thrilled to cheer along the Eagles even though they face a tricky three matches to qualify.
Sat in Group D, Poland face the Netherlands in their first game which many feel will be the crucial decider for the runner-up spot and automatic qualification.
This is due to Mbappe’s France – the tournament favourites – also being in the group.
The French squad have made it to three of the last four major international finals and won the World Cup in 2018.
Poland also face Austria in a tricky tie which could be pivotal in deciding which nation qualifies in third place and has a chance to progress.
Marta said: “I can’t wait. Seeing our team play live, feeling the energy of the crowd, and being part of the sea of white and red supporters is an experience like no other.
“The latest news is disappointing – Robert Lewandowski will not be playing against the Netherlands.
“This is a big blow to our chances, but I still believe in the team’s ability to fight hard and perform well.”

Marta is already looking ahead to the next Euros in 2028 which is set to be held in the UK and Ireland as she lives in London.
“It will be incredibly convenient and thrilling to have such a major tournament right at my doorstep,” she added.
It comes as Croatia’s stunning fan, Ivana Knoll has already rocked up in Germany and is ready to watch Croatia battle their way through the predicted “group of death”.
Knoll is known for her particularly revealing outfits and has left fans dying to know whether she has any tricks up her sleeve for her trip to Germany.
