The Iceland Women Euro 2025 squad has been confirmed and they will want to go at least a step further than the last Euros.

Iceland were knocked out in the group stage in 2022. This time around they are in a favourable group and so they could edge their opponents out to reach the knock-out stage.

They will play hosts Switzerland, Finland and Norway in the group stage. By no means will the games be easy, but if handled well they could wangle their way to the next stage. Below, you'll find all you need to know about the team...

Iceland manager: Þorsteinn Halldórsson

Þorsteinn Halldórsson has been in charge of Iceland since 2021 and they have been slowly progressing throughout that time. In Euro 2022, they narrowly missed out on progressing to the quarter-finals after drawing against France, Belgium and Italy.

They did fail to qualify for the 2023 World Cup but that came at the hands of a late goal by the Netherlands in their final qualification match. It feels like Iceland just need to take a clinical edge in matches as their next step.

Halldórsson is the right person to continue the progression and the team, who did not need the play-off qualification for this summer's tournament, have been drawn in a good group to try and qualify for the knockouts.

Iceland's star player

Forward Sveindís Jónsdóttir established herself in a star-packed Wolfsburg team and won the Frauen Bundesliga before moving to Angel City.

She burst onto the international scene when she made her debut in 2022. She started against Latvia and scored two goals in Iceland's 9-0 win.

Jónsdóttir is just 24 but she feels like the player everything moves through in the Iceland team. She has a huge future ahead, starting with the tournament this summer.
