Half-and-half scarf sellers in Germany are dropping their prices as they struggle to attract interest from England fans at Euro 2024.

German sellers have already dropped their prices from €20 to €15 in Gelsenkirchen as England prepare to take on Serbia at the Veltins-Arena on Sunday.

The Daily Express spoke to fans in the German city before the game.

Mick and Matt, Colchester and England fans at their first tournament, said half-and-half scarfs are "not for us".

They added: "The only time that’s allowed is if it’s a kid's first game. If you want a memento take a photo with the other fans don’t buy one of them."

Half and half scarfs are divisive among football fans. Many young fans like them as momentous from games they have been to live, but fans who regularly attend games look at them with disdain.

England fans have been pictured enjoying themselves in Gelsenkirchen and nearby Dusseldorf before the Three Lions' kick off their EURO 2024 campaign against Serbia.

As many as 500,000 England supporters are expected to travel to Germany for the tournament

Many fans have been filmed singing "10 German bombers in the air" despite a warning from Gelsenkirchen's chief of police that the song should not be sung.

In a letter to England Supporters Travel Club (ESTC) members, first reported by the i, the FA said: “We hope that all fans will continue to keep in mind the importance of representing England in the right way whilst abroad.

“Our presence here is an opportunity to demonstrate the best of England, both on and off the pitch.”
