Who Has The Best Skills In the Euros 2024? Euros Best Players List
Our team have been asking the all-important question… who’s the biggest baller in the Euros 2024?
By now, you know the level of detail we go into when it comes to analysing players 👀 It’s that fast footwork and dynamic play that we love… and especially if those skills were built on the Street Football courts!
So, let’s get into it. We’ve been watching some of these guys since they were at the Youth Academy level, and some others are already on their way to becoming legends. This is our Street to Stadium picks for the Ballers To Watch At The UEFA Euros 2024! 🚀
(These are just from the squads that have been announced so far… we’ll send you more as the new squads come out)
SWITZERLAND 🇨🇭
Xherdan Shaqiri
Played street football as a child in Switzerland and went on to forge an insane career winning club world titles… an unreal story 👏
SERBIA 🇷🇸
Dusan Tadic
The skills he’s shown at Ajax over the years are enough to put him on our list! He grew up on Serbian street football, playing Backa Topola in his homeland.
FRANCE 🇫🇷
Ousmane Dembélé
The fast footwork he built from playing Street Football made him the player he is today. In his documentary he says “we would play football on the streets or on urban pitches from 1pm to 8pm.”
It’s even cooler to hear his friend say "Ousmane was one of the local kids you would see in the streets… he might've been ten years younger than the other kids, but he'd still do an inside hook past them, nutmeg them and score after that.” 🔥
Warren Zaïre-Emery
Absolutely ridiculous talent at just 18. Another seriously skilled dribbler. We’re picking him as one of our ones to watch and think he will have an insane tournament if he’s on form.
GERMANY 🇩🇪
Jamal Musiala
Ridiculously good at dribbling. Musiala grew up in London and played Street Football on many of the same courts as Jack and other top ballers. Still only 21 and on his way to being one of the best Footwork masters in the modern game.
Leroy Sane
One of Germany’s most exciting prospects since emerging at Schalke, making serious moves with Man City and now representing Bayern Munich.
Kai Havertz
Jack has played with Havertz and can vouch for his insane skills. He’s another lover of street football like ourselves, and was inspired by Ronaldinho (we took that same inspiration and turned it into our Footwork Mastery course)

Shine on the pitch, dominate opponents and train the right way!
ENGLAND 🏴
Kobbie Mainoo
Areal Street to Stadium story, Kobbie grew up on the streets of Manchester working on his talent before he was picked up and signed for the United academy. Then the stadiums followed! 🚀
Eberechi Eze
Here’s another baller that played on the Street Football courts a lot while he was growing up, and shows that if you put the work in while you’re developing then you’ll see the results.
Phil Foden
He needs no introduction, we’ve loved his fast footwork and fluid style since day 1. Listen to the man himself: “I just love my street football; that's what made me who I am.”
HOLLAND 🇳🇱
Xavi Simons
Another baller that Jack has played with. His rise during his time at Barca was so good to watch.
Memphis Depay
When Depay is on form he’s a joy to watch. After scoring for Barca he said “when I was a child I played in the streets a lot. In tight spaces, you need to use some smart things.” This is the exact skillset we give you in Footwork Mastery.
UKRAINE 🇺🇦
Mykhailo Mudryk
When he was playing for Shakhtar Donetsk in both the academy and as a pro, he was making insane viral football challenge videos at the same time as Jack. We knew he had crazy skills from day 1.
PORTUGAL 🇵🇹
Bernardo Silva
From the streets of Portugal to the world stage, this is another Street to Stadium story. Silva has one of our favourite quotes ever: “on the street, in school with friends, or in Benfica's academy, I remember just enjoying having the ball around me. Doing what I love, which is playing football. Pure joy." 😍
João Félix
He’s been on the radar of football experts since he joined Porto’s Projeto Jogador de Elite (Elite Player Project) at 13. When Ronaldo is ready to pass the baton to the next world star, many people think it’ll be Félix. It’s not just his deadly 1v1 skills, but his understanding of space and how to use it that makes him who he is.
Cristiano Ronaldo
The legend spent his younger years playing street football in Portugal before he was scouted for professional clubs. It was Sporting Lisbon who first noticed his skills on the street and decided to take their chance on him.
HUNGARY 🇭🇺
Dominik Szoboszlai
The experts all say the same thing when it comes to Szoboszlai’s standout talents: it’s his dexterity, ball-carrying ability and tight control. These are the exact attributes we develop for you in Footwork Mastery. They’re the foundations of Street Football and some of the key things that make 11-a-side players dominate the average players.

So there we have it. When we look at the gold standard for skill in the Euros, these are the players we talk about. We’ll drop more of our picks when the other squads get announced, but until then… keep up your training!
