Explanation

A Eurobond is defined by where it is issued, not the currency. It is a bond issued in a country other than the country whose currency it is denominated in. For example, a dollar-denominated bond issued in London or a yen-denominated bond issued in France. The term comes from the historical Eurocurrency market, not from Europe or the Euro currency.
