Danny Dyer reveals 'friction' among families of England stars at Euro 2024 after cheering on daughter Dani's boyfriend Jarrod Bowen in Germany

Dyer jetted to Germany to watch his daughter Dani's boyfriend Jarrod Bowen at the tournament. Dani and Bowen have two children together. As a result, Danny and Dani, plus their extended family, were in Germany to cheer on the West Ham ace, although it ended in tears.

Bowen played a total of 35 minutes at the tournament, coming on as a substitute in both of England's first two games, against Serbia and Denmark, but remained on the bench for the remainder of their tun to the final. And Dyer has revealed that playing time can have a major effect on the mood of families who have travelled.

Speaking on talkSPORT, Dyer said: "We went to the final all of us and it was very emotional. It’s mad watching it with families, it's very intense following the team around for six weeks.

"It’s not a glamorous lifestyle. They’re sitting on coaches for three hours and it hasn’t been the most exciting football either. Some of the families are there and some of their sons are not getting enough game time so there’s a little bit of friction there.

"Gareth Southgate did seem to stay with the same team so some people didn’t get any minutes. At least J [Bowen] got some earlier minutes. It’s very frustrating to sit on the bench and you can’t get any minutes. There’s nothing you can do about it so you take it on the chin, you learn from it. Hopefully whoever comes in [next manager] fancies Jarrod again and he gets to go again at the World Cup."

England are now searching for a new manager after Gareth Southgate opted to resign after their heartbreaking defeat to Spain in the final.
