Prince George at EURO 2020 last year

In June, during a visit to St George's Park with the England Women's team, Prince William revealed that their daughter is a "budding" future football player.

The royal was given three football shirts that had his children's names on the back. As he saw Charlotte's shirt, he laughed and passed on a message from his child.

"Charlotte wanted me to tell you that she is really good at goal. She said 'Please tell them that.' She's a budding star for the future," he shared.

Prince William recently met with the Lionesses

The second-in-line to the throne is president of the Football Association, and a supporter of Aston Villa football club, and it appears his children have also taken to the sport.

Prince George is a keen football fan and he attended his first football match along with his sister, Charlotte, in October 2019, watching Norwich City vs Aston Villa at Carrow Road Stadium.

He even posed in his England football shirt for his sixth birthday pictures in 2019. In 2021, the nine-year-old appeared at many of the England games during the rescheduled 2020 Euros.
