Wales bid to co-host Euro 2028 in move that 'will have immeasurable impact' on country​

Wales and the other UK nations, along with Ireland, will focus efforts on a bid for Euro 2028 rather than the 2030 World Cup

The Wales, England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Republic of Ireland football associations will focus on a joint-bid to host Euro 2028.

It comes after the associations opted against bidding to hold the 2030 World Cup.

A statement read: "Hosting a UEFA EURO offers a similar return on investment, with the European tournament carrying a far lower delivery cost and the potential of the benefits being realised sooner."

The Football Association of Wales [FAW] have stated they will continue to collaborate with government partners of the United Kingdom and Ireland about the next phase of the tournament bid process.

FAW president Stephen Williams said: “Here in Wales, the Red Wall have a special affinity with the European Championships and for us to potentially see Cymru participating as a host country at UEFA EURO 2028 is an exciting prospect.

I can't see it happening if I'm honest, mainly because I think the saes will have fucked it up for everyone last time around, but you never know.

That’s ok. England can have a few group games and leave the important games for the fans that know how to behave.

It won't have helped and it could easily be argued that England have had a tournament already given how many of the big games they had at the last Euros.

Seems fair enough. Ours is the only other stadium worthy of a Euros game and a mile away from the PS

"You can host the biggest game in club football featuring Real Madrid and Juve... and also a UEFA Super Cup match, but you don't have the transport capabilities to host Austria vs North Macedonia. Sorry lads. We don't make the rules".

We've only got one stadium in the mix and by UEFA standards they're happy with our transport system as there are so many airports within 3 hours and quite a few more not that much further away.
