England stars plot ultimate Las Vegas trip – but only if they win Euro 2020
A selection of England’s stars will let loose with a trip to Las Vegas as long as they beat Italy to bring it home in Sunday’s Euro 2020 final at Wembley.
The Three Lions will make their European Championship final debut on home soil and are set to contest their first major title since lifting the 1966 World Cup at the original Wembley.
The Sun reported Jack Grealish and Jordan Pickford are the main men plotting the potential expedition to Nevada, with some of their Premier League cohorts expected to join the trip.
Among those on the flight list are West Ham’s Declan Rice, as well as Chelsea duo Mason Mount and Ben Chilwell.
When quizzed about his plans to celebrate the title should England end their 55-year wait for major silverware, Grealish replied: “Go to Las Vegas for ten days. I’d be straight on a plane to Vegas and wouldn’t be coming back — completed it!”
Three Lions fans were recently left scratching their heads after substitute Grealish was taken off during extra time in England’s 2-1 semi-final victory over Denmark.
Gareth Southgate made the tough decision to hook the Aston Villa ace in favour of another defender, Kieran Trippier, immediately after Harry Kane scored to put them ahead in the 104th minute.
Pickford—who overcame a shaky start at Wembley to help England advance—has also spoken of his plans to head for the Vegas strip in the event the Three Lions are still celebrating come Sunday night.
Do you think England's stars will win Euro 2020 to earn their dream Vegas trip? Let us know in the comments section.
The Everton stopper is planning a slightly longer Vegas stay, however, after he recently said: “Three weeks in Vegas with Jack (Grealish) . . . it would be a great experience and I’d be definitely getting the rave on for a good spell!”
The Three Lions have made it to their maiden European Championship final on the back of a united campaign, largely thanks to the professional attitude promoted by their manager.
England’s players have displayed great understanding in games and camaraderie during the recovery periods between matches from their headquarters at St George’s Park.
Leicester’s James Maddison is mentioned as another attendee on the trip despite missing out on a place in Southgate’s squad this summer.
The Foxes talisman has holidayed in Dubai with former Leicester team-mate Chilwell in the past, while Mount and Rice have been close friends since their days together in Chelsea’s academy.
England are expected to play in front of another packed 60,000-strong audience in Sunday’s Euro final, hopeful that home advantage will play a factor against Roberto Mancini’s men.
The Azzurri—who are currently on a 33-game unbeaten run—have reached seven major finals and won three of them since the Three Lions last lifted silverware just over a half-century ago.
Not that England’s stars will need any more motivation in their efforts to end that title wait, but the promise of a summer jaunt to Sin City could provide that extra ounce of inspiration to succeed.
