Scott, Slegers & Houghton join BBC team for Euro 2025

Gabby Logan, Alex Scott and Jeanette Kwakye will lead the BBC’s coverage of the Women’s Euro 2025 in Switzerland on TV and iPlayer.

They’re joined by Anita Asante and Ellie Roebuck, along with former Wales international Katie Sherwood.

Arsenal boss Renee Slegers, Scotland’s Rachel Corsie, ex-England defender Nedum Onuoha and former Germany international Josie Henning will also provide tournament analysis.

“Few things bring excitement and nerves like a big football tournament and Uefa Women’s Euro 2025 will be no different,” said Alex Kay-Jelski, director of BBC Sport.

“Whether you’re sitting in front of the tv, listening on the radio, following our live pages, social channels or website and app coverage, the BBC will be bringing the drama to life.”

Euro 2025 gets under way on 2 July as 16 teams compete for glory in Switzerland.

Kay-Jelski added: “The 2025 UEFA Women’s Euro is part of a top-tier line-up of women’s sports on the BBC this summer.

Wales’ major tournament debut will be shown live on BBC One as they take on the Netherlands on 5 July (17:00 BST kick-off).

Sarina Wiegman’s reigning European champions kick off their campaign against France later that day (20:00 BST).

“I’m absolutely buzzing to be part of the BBC team for the Euros,” said former midfielder Scott, who was part of England’s Euro-winning squad in 2022.

“Tournaments like this are what football’s all about: the passion, the drama, the unforgettable moments. I can’t wait to get stuck in, share some insight and hopefully bring a bit of fun along the way too.”
