The FAI have confirmed that they and the IFA will be part of a joint bid with England, Scotland and Wales to host Euro 2028.

Having initially commissioned an extensive feasibility study to host the 2030 World Cup, the 5 footballing bodies will now attempt to win the bid for the Euros 2 years earlier.

A joint statement was released saying: Hosting a UEFA Euro [championship] 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.

“It would be an honour and a privilege to collectively host UEFA Euro 2028 and to welcome all of Europe. It would also be a wonderful opportunity to demonstrate the true impact of hosting a world-class football tournament by driving positive change and leaving a lasting legacy across our communities.

“We believe the UK and the Republic of Ireland can offer UEFA and European football something special in 2028 – a compact and unique five-way hosting collaboration that will provide a great experience for the teams and the fans.

“We continue to collaborate with our Government Partners of the UK and Ireland about the next steps.”
