2015 UEFA European Under-21 Championship squads
Each national team had to submit a squad of 23 players, three of whom must be goalkeepers. This had to be done 10 days before the start of the tournament. If a player was injured or ill severely enough to prevent his participation in the tournament before his team's first match, he could be replaced by another player.[1]
Players in boldface were capped at full international level prior to the start of the tournament.
