They are reportedly in the capital to record video for their new official Euro 2020 with DJ Martin Garrix.

And U2's Bono cut a dapper figure as he enjoyed dinner with bandmate The Edge at Scott's restaurant in London's Mayfair on Tuesday. 

The lead singer, 60, looked smart in an all black ensemble as he left the swanky eatery alongside The Edge, 59, who was dressed in a somewhat more casual outfit.

Bono, real name, Paul David Hewson, donned a black jacket with white stitching for the outing, teaming it with a simple black T-shirt and trousers.

The Beautiful Day hitmaker added a pair of shiny black shoes and a black face mask, as well as his signature orange-tinted shades. 

Meanwhile, The Edge, real name David Howell Evans, dressed down in a black leather jacket, a black T-shirt and dark jeans.

He topped off his look with his usual black beanie hat, white trainers and a black face mask.

Despite heading for a seemingly low-key meal, their presence attracted a small group of fans keen to get a glimpse of their music idols. 

The Edge was seen stopping for the fans and signing autographs before leaving the establishment. 

It comes as U2 have teamed up with DJ Martin Garrix to record the official Euro 2020 song.

The track, called We Are The People We've Been Waiting, is now set for release on May 14 ahead of the delayed football tournament kicking off in June.

A music insider told The Sun: 'Martin adores football so this opportunity was ­massive for him, which is why he aimed for the very top when looking for collaborators.

'He has spent months and months working on this song to make it perfect and once Bono and The Edge were on board, it hit new heights.

'They have spoken quite a few times and are in London at the moment working on the video. They can't wait to get it out there for everyone to listen to really soon.'

Martin shared a snap confirming the collaboration to his Twitter account on Tuesday and also announced the song's release date on Monday.

Sharing a short video showing a compilation of football stadiums and music events, the DJ revealed that May 14 is the date when fans can listen to the tune. 

Martin has seen great success since his number one hit Animals was released in 2013 and has since worked with stars such as Dua Lipa, David Guetta and Usher.

While U2 have sold millions of albums around the world and are known for hit songs such as Desire and Vertigo making it to number one on the UK charts.

Martin was first confirmed as the musician chosen to create a song for the Euros in October 2019 and said at the time that it was an 'incredible honour' to be asked. 

The Euros 2020 kick off in June with 24 nations competing and the final being played at Wembley Stadium in London after it was delayed amid the Covid pandemic.
