32 countries vying to host Euro 2020

A TOTAL of 32 countries have proposed 39 different cities to host matches at the 2020 European Championship, UEFA said yesterday.

The national associations — representing more than half of the 54 UEFA countries — have not yet specified if they want to stage the final. “It’s an excellent piece of news and this shows that the idea was a good one,” UEFA President Michel Platini said. Platini suggested the broad hosting plan to reduce construction costs for host nations and travel expenses for fans. UEFA will choose the 13 host cities for the 24-team tournament in September 2014. One city will host the final and semifinals.
