Football: Wembley put forward for Euro final
Uefa President is considering a change to the format of tournament so that it would be played in cities across Europe.
LONDON:
England’s Football Association have suggested that Wembley should stage the 2020 European Championship final. Uefa President Michel Platini, the former France international, is considering a change to the format of the tournament so that it would be played in cities across Europe, rather than just one or two countries. Wembley’s chances are linked to Turkey’s bid for Euro 2020 – if Istanbul wins the right to stage the 2020 Olympics, then Uefa will not award it the Euro.
