A decision on the final venues to host matches in the Euro 2020 finals this summer has been pushed back to this coming Friday.
The Executive Committee of UEFA met today in a mix of in-person and virtual attendance and considered the position of Bilbao, Dublin and Munich where there is currently no confirmation of spectators’ attendance.
The committee tasked the UEFA management team to draw up concrete proposals for a final decision to be taken via videoconference this Friday 23 April 2021.
The Football Association of Ireland and the Local Organising Structure partners – Dublin City Council, Government and the Aviva Stadium – were informed by UEFA that no decision is forthcoming as yet regarding the hosting.
An FAI statement said that “The Dublin LOS acknowledge this statement from UEFA and awaits further communication in due course. The FAI and the LOS will maintain dialogue with UEFA and will make no further comment until UEFA has reached a final decision on Dublin’s status as a host venue for UEFA EURO 2020 on Friday, April 23.”
