Conor McGregor in line to win £3.2MILLION on pair of Euro 2024 final bets which are bound to upset England fans
EVERY England fan will be hoping Conor McGregor is £86,000 out of pocket tomorrow night.
That’s because the MMA superstar has lumped a hefty bet on the Three Lions to lose the Euro 2024 final, in search of millions in return.
The Notorious fighter took to X to share the whopping punt he’s put on England‘s opponents Spain to win the clash.
His post explained that he has lumped €100,000 (£86,000) on Spain to beat Gareth Southgate‘s side 3-1.
And with the long-shot bet offering up 25-1 odds, McGregor is in line to pocket an eye-watering £3.2million if it comes off.
McGregor seems confident that he will be rolling in money come full-time tomorrow night too as he wrote: “Lovely jubbly €3.7m all in tomorrow for my birthday! THE RICH GET RICHER, BE EXCITED!”
Although fans of the Irish southpaw who are getting behind England were left less than impressed.
One wrote: “Nah mate! England will win 2-0.”
While another joked: “Just give me the £100k instead of throwing it away!”
And a third added: “Unfortunately for you, it’s coming home tomorrow.”

Southgate and his brave lions will be hoping their efforts in Berlin will be enough to lift the trophy and in turn scupper McGregor’s get rich(er) quick plan.
Regardless of whether they are able to go one step further than their 2021 Wembley heartache, they will leave Germany having made history.
The 26-strong squad have become the first men’s England team to reach a major final on foreign soil.
While Southgate himself has made history as the first England men’s senior manager to make two major finals.
McGregor has already been raking in the cash with his betting exploits recently.
The UFC star made £1.2million from his £390,000 bet on Nate Diaz to beat Jorge Masvidal earlier this month.
But Diaz was left unimpressed by the mega return, simply replying “that’s cool” when asked about his rivals winnings.
