Sausage-loving Germans have banned health-conscious England fans from taking FRUIT to their Euro 2024 opener.

The Three Lions face Serbia at the Veltins Arena in Gelsenkirchen on 16 June in their tournament opener.

They then play Denmark four days later at the Frankfurt Arena.

This will be followed by Slovenia in the Cologne Stadium on 25 June.

Harry Kane and Co. will then look to progress all the way to the final in Berlin on 14 July.

But in all the 10 stadiums being used in the tournament, supporters are outlawed from bringing apples, bananas, and oranges in.

The healthy snacks are listed among the prohibited items for the grounds.

Healthy England supporters who are intending to bring them instead of purchasing food in the concourses could face a hefty punishment.

The guidelines state that any breach of stadium rules could result in being kicked out of the ground and reported to police.

The supporters could also then be banned from the rest of the tournament without being refunded.

The UEFA ruling states: “The following items shall not be brought into the stadium, unless expressly authorised by the Stadium Authority or UEFA.

“Liquids – drinks, e-cigarette refills, etc – and food of any kind, including fruit, such as apples, bananas, oranges, etc.

“Not including foods required for medical reasons, about which the Stadium Authority must be notified in advance.

“Subject to any applicable laws, any breach of the stadium rules may result in the following penalties.

“Expulsion from the stadium with a report to the police;

“A stadium ban for the whole or part of the duration of UEFA EURO 2024™, in accordance with the relevant GTC.

“Cancellation of the Ticket or Accreditation in the possession of the offending person for that
match and any Tickets or Accreditations to other UEFA EURO 2024™ matches without refund, in accordance with the relevant GTC.”

Germany is renowned for its love of sausages like Bratwursts and Frankfurters.
