Ian Maxwell confirms Hampden revamp plan as joint Euro 2028 bid earns 'track record' verdict

SFA chief Ian Maxwell has confirmed that Hampden Park will face something of a revamp after the joint EURO 2028 bid was announced.

The national stadium is one of ten selected by the joint forces of the SFA in conjunction with the FA's in Ireland, Northern Ireland, England and Wales in a bid to bring the tournament to the UK and beyond. The likes of Wembley, the Millennium Stadium, the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and the Etihad all join Hampden in the running for potential venues.

Scotland played two fixtures of their EURO 2020 campaign in Mount Florida with Steve Clarke's squad hoping to reach the next instillation of the finals in Germany in 2024. And while Hampden has come under criticism in some quarters for the condition of the pitch, the SFA's top chief is promising 'additions and improvements' made as part of the bid.
