Milton Keynes' Stadium MK is the surprise inclusion on the shortlist of proposed grounds for the UK and Ireland's bid to host Euro 2028. The Buckinghamshire stadium is set to be one of 10 in England included in the bid, according to The Times.
The report says that some big-name grounds will miss out, with Liverpool's Anfield, Arsenal's Emirates Stadium, Chelsea's Stamford Bridge and Leeds United's Elland Road among the big omissions from the shortlist. Anfield and Stamford Bridge are not permitted to host games at Euro 2028 due to the size of their pitches, while Elland Road has not been given the time and resources needed to put on games by its local authorities.
Stadium MK, the home of MK Dons, was officially opened in 2007. It hosted four matches during the UEFA Women's Euro 2022 in the summer, including the semi-final between Germany and France played in front of 28,000 fans.
