Ireland and the UK have been officially confirmed as the hosts for Euro 2028.
The Aviva Stadium in Dublin will be one of the host venues, along with Casement Park in Belfast. The proposed plan would see six games - including a quarter-final - hosted at the Aviva.
Aside from the pan-European Euro 2020, the tournament returns to England for the first time since 1996, while the other four nations will be hosting it for the first time. They were left as the sole bidder for the tournament after Turkey pulled out of the running last week.
They will instead host the competition in 2032 alongside Italy. The UK and Ireland opted to come together back in February last year and lodge a joint-bid as they axed plans to push for the World Cup in 2030.
Russia and Turkey were those aiming to rival the UK-IRL bid last year, but they have both pulled out for different reasons. The former have seen their clubs banned from UEFA competitions following their invasion on Ukraine, which gave their application little hope of succeeding.
