The UEFA executive committee is set to give the green light to the five-nation bid
, which is unopposed after Turkey withdrew last week to focus on its joint bid with Italy for Euro 2032.
The five nations released a joint statement last week following Turkey’s withdrawal, stating they had a “compelling” and “ground-breaking” proposal for UEFA to consider, which would deliver “lasting legacies” across the whole of Ireland and the UK. The Casement project has been delayed by a series of legal challenges and is further complicated by the lack of a functioning Executive at Stormont.
