As tournament hosts, Phil Neville's Lionesses qualify automatically and after beginning their campaign at Old Trafford, will complete their group stage fixtures in front of home crowds at a further two Premier League venues - Brighton & Hove Albion's Community Stadium and St. Mary's Stadium in Southampton.

Neville said: "It doesn't get much bigger than managing your country at a home EURO, and it is set to be a special summer as we prepare to host this wonderful competition.

"Old Trafford has a special place in my heart, and is also one of the country's most iconic football grounds, so I'm looking forward to kicking off our WEURO2021 campaign in Manchester.

"I can't wait to then take our Lionesses to Southampton and Brighton, as the tournament offers fans across the country the chance to watch the elite women's game on home turf next summer."
