The UK and Ireland are bidding to host Euro 2028, and if they are successful, one stadium involved in the bid will need to undergo quite the makeover.
Organisers have submitted a proposal based on hosting matches at 10 stadiums across England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. And while there are eight familiar names – Wembley Stadium in London, Hampden Park in Glasgow and the Aviva Stadium in Dublin among them – there were two stand-out selections.
