Uk And Ireland Set To Host Euro 2028 As Sole Contenders After Turkey Withdrawal

In a significant turn of events, the United Kingdom and Ireland are poised to host Euro 2028, pending final approval from UEFA’s executive committee next week. This follows Turkey’s withdrawal from the bid, shifting its focus to a joint bid with Italy for Euro 2032.

The five-nation bid, the only option left for the 2028 finals, is expected to be formally announced as the host after the UEFA executive committee meeting in Switzerland next week. UEFA issued a statement confirming the withdrawal of Turkey’s bid for Euro 2028 and the submission of a joint bid with Italy for 2032.
