FA in talks with UEFA to hold all of rescheduled Euro 2020 in the UK

It'd be about right, wouldn't it? The UK finally gets a tournament, and we still might have to watch it at home

The United Kingdom could be set to host all of next summer's European Championships, after it emerged the Football Association has held talks with Uefa about the possibility. Euro 2020 was postponed by a year due to the coronavirus pandemic, but had planned to follow a new format where games would be staged in numerous host cities across the continent - not just by one nation. However, despite positive news about the effectiveness of a soon-to-be ready vaccine, concerns about infection rates have seen European football's governing body explore alternative plans for the finals. It is possible they will revert to their old model of allowing a single nation play host to the games, with Russia reportedly the likeliest choice according to recent reports. According to a report by the Daily Mail, however, this is no longer the case, with talks with the FA ongoing. Several of the tournament's major games - including the semi-finals and final - are already set to be staged at Wembley, with Scotland playing two of their three group games at Hampden Park. Wales are currently due to play one of their group fixtures in Italy with the other two in Azerbaijan, but the report suggests they would be able to make a strong case for hosting games in Cardiff, which has recently been used as a Champions League final venue. Head of Uefa Aleksander Ceferin is keen to stick to the new tournament format, but the simple fact remains there is still lots of uncertainty about whether this is viable. A decision is expected within the next two months.
