The 2024 UEFA European Championship’s qualifying draw was held at the Festhalle exhibition center in Frankfurt on Sunday.
Germany was not included in the draw as it advanced to the finals directly because it is the host nation.
Türkiye will play with Croatia, Wales, Armenia and Latvia in Group D at Euro 2024.
The first qualifying round games will be played on March 23–25, 2023.
