Speaking about the opportunity, Martin said: “Music is my passion, but I’m also a huge football fan, so it’s extra special for me to be able to create the official song for what will be the biggest Euro in history.”
The championship will kick off on June 11, after being delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
