UEFA has confirmed it received declarations of interest from four potential bidders for hosting rights to Euro 2028 and Euro 2032.
The United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland launched a joint-bid for Euro 2028 earlier on Wednesday, while a Russian official remarkably confirmed its own interest in holding either of the two tournaments.
Russia’s teams are currently banned from UEFA and FIFA competitions following the country’s invasion of Ukraine, but the 2018 World Cup hosts pushed ahead regardless.
Turkey has joined Russia in announcing to UEFA its willingness to stage the European Championship in either 2028 or 2032.
While the two countries are up against the UK and Ireland in the first of the two finals, Italy is the other interested party four years later.
The hosts of the two tournaments will be announced in September 2023.
