MADRID, July 20 — Spain’s World Cup-winning football team will parade through central Madrid on Monday afternoon in front of an expected crowd of one million, authorities said.
Spain added the world crown to the European title they won in 2024 after beating 10-man Argentina 1-0 after extra time.
The squad is due to land at Madrid airport at 12.50 pm local time (1050 GMT).
The players will then travel from near the Moncloa Palace, the official residence of Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, to Cibeles Square, the central government’s representative in Madrid, Francisco Martin told Spanish public television.
A ceremony involving the players will then be held at the square, the traditional gathering point for celebrations by the Spanish national team and its supporters.
Around one million people are expected to line the parade route, with additional security and transport measures planned to handle the crowds, Martin said.
A total of 2,050 police officers and 400 Civil Guard personnel will be deployed, he added.
Madrid was already preparing for a night of festivities after the final, with thousands of supporters who gathered in bars and three fan zones pouring into the streets in celebration.
