2013 UEFA European Under-21 Championship squads
This article lists the squads for the 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Championship. Only players born on or after 1 January 1990 are eligible to play.
Each participating team must submit a list of 40 players, including no fewer than four goalkeepers, thirty days before the opening match. This must be reduced to a final squad of 23 players by 26 May 2013. Players born no earlier than 1 January 1990 are eligible for the tournament, meaning some participants will be 23 years old as the 'under-21' limit applies at the start of the qualifying competition.
Players in boldface have been capped at full international level at some point in their career.
