Euro 2028, Italy is a candidate for new stadiums for Uefa’s ok

by admin

The FIGC president Gravina officially announced his intention to take the field “The blue triumph at Wembley gave impetus to the whole country.” Also thinking about the World Cup

the case

SENT TO S. CRISTINA (BOLZANO)

The idea started from afar. And the idea, in the last few hours, has taken shape: Italy will apply to organize the European Championships on the agenda in 2028. A leap forward that finds its logic in the desire to redo the trick with stadiums that look to the future and a leap forward that turns out to be more credible now that our football is back on the top of Europe.

The president of the FIGC Gabriele Gravina comes out in the open: “We want to run for Euro 2028. There would also be the hypothesis of the 2030 World Cup, but having to think step by step I would say the Europeans scheduled in seven years”. Thinking step by step translates into a reflection on which of the two projects would have greater guarantees of success: in Europe our image is that of a beautiful and fun, courageous and united national team, variables that add to the greater feasibility of a European compared to a World Championship with more teams (32 compared to 24), more stadiums, more investments.

The path is long, the decision to be taken in a short time: by next spring the candidacy dossier will have to be presented to UEFA. «We have to start the process for the construction or renovation of our stadiums: it would make no sense to ask the Europeans, giving the feeling of having them to settle the issue of gaming facilities. The first step must be taken immediately », Gravina thought.

There are already 600 million euros on the table for seven stadiums: Bologna, Cagliari, Florence, Genoa, Verona, La Spezia and Empoli thanks to the invaluable commitment of the Istituto per il Credito Sportivo led by president Andrea Abodi in the role of advisor or financier . Who should we watch out for in the run up to Euro 2028? England could take to the pitch for a new challenge at the highest level: the English have been thinking about it for a while, but their possible chances of victory are weighed down by the mismanagement of the final act of the European Championship that has just ended (Uefa has opened an investigation into the events of Wembley) and the fact that Euro 2020 took place, for its large part, in London with the Southgate boys engaged in Wembley for six of their seven matches up to the final. In addition to the nation of the Three Lions, the organization of the 2028 event also looks to Turkey, eternal defeat at the finish line first for Euro 2016 which went to France and, then, for Euro 2024, the next one, which will be played in Germany. And besides Turkey, there could be a candidacy from Romania along with Bulgaria and Greece.

Italy thinks big and, now, it can do it with great pride. “The blue triumph – underlines Gravina – gives impetus to the country by contributing to give us more credibility and esteem on the part of those who observe us: all the major researches translate into 12 billion, 0.7 percent of GDP, the effect of the success of Wembley ». Italy is waiting for the first days of September to re-embrace its national team called to three duels with points at stake towards Qatar 2022: Bulgaria, Switzerland and Lithuania are the obstacles to overcome. In the meantime, we are ready to prepare the moves to dismiss the dossier: the first step will be the formal involvement of the government, sensitive and present when it comes to giving light to the country system.

The European 2028 is the goal, the World 2030 could be, but if in the case, an ally would be needed to overcome the criticalities that accompany such a global turning point. The machine to redo, or renovate, the stadiums is already in place, we need to give a shake: nothing is stronger than the concrete possibility of hosting the European championship. –
