You have probably spent the last 18 months dreaming of the moment when you finally get to strut into a nightclub or party again.
The exact moment when the music hits you and you are greeted by your friends has been planned for almost a year and a half, and Jordan Pickford has just set the bar for such an entrance.

The England goalkeeper threw home a party for his friends and family recently to celebrate his fantastic Euro 2020 campaign, with Pickford leaving with the Golden Glove after conceding twice on seven excursions.
The Sunderland-born shooter walked into the event from head to toe in Gucci clothing, with Neil Diamond’s “Sweet Caroline” chosen as his walk-in music – don’t even try to tell us you’ve planned a better entrance than that.
Aside from football knowledge, Pickford is known for his love of rave, with the words “Get The Rave On” regularly printed on his boots.
So it will probably come as no surprise to hear that things soon took a dramatic turn at his pleasant homecoming event, with the Sports Bible reporting that it was not long before Pickford was filmed shirtless on his friend’s shoulders and danced to Cher ‘Believe’.
Say what you will about the boy, in an age where football players are obsessed with pretending to be cool, listening to Drake and Kendrick Lamar, we love that he still embraces his love of 90’s pop.
The videos of Pickford “enjoying the festivities” soon circulated on the internet, and while some will complain and say “why is he celebrating that he stopped others?”, We say well for you, after the Pickford tournament he had deserved to celebrate.

Of course, after such a massive international tournament, we can expect to see lots of videos of players finally dropping their hair after a draining summer.
While Pickford clearly appreciated the attention and refreshments on offer, one man who did not seem to enjoy his Euro 2020 party so much was Italy star Federico Chiesa.
Videos have appeared of the kid in the middle of a nightclub which, shall we say, looks a little worse for wear.
