England 's WAGs became such good pals at the World Cup last year they want to reunite for Euro 2024 and have even more fun.

And they plan to recapture the spirit of their predecessors in Baden-Baden in 2006 and let their hair down after being more restricted in Qatar.

They are looking at accommodation across Germany after the Three Lions’ superb start to the qualifiers.

“They have been looking at venues all across the 10 cities,” said an insider. “They want to be close to the nightlife and shopping after being limited in what they could do in Qatar.

“They love to read about the fun the wives and girlfriends had in 2006. They’d like to follow in their footsteps and have a bit more fun.”
