St James’ Park could get the chance to host a European Championship game for the first time since 1996.
Newcastle’s home stadium has been placed on a list of 10 potential grounds that could be used for Euro 2028 if the UK bid is successful. Other names on the list include the likes of Wembley, Hampden Park, Principality Stadium and the Etihad.
Originally the hope was that the UK would be able to host the 2030 World Cup, but after plans for that were abandoned, it was announced that a Euro 2028 bid was more likely to be successful.
