A joint Cabinet memo is being brought by Minister for Tourism, Catherine Martin, and Minister for Sport, Jack Chambers, looking for Government approval.
Government sources are extremely confident that the hosting alongside Northern Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales will be successful.Russia has been blocked by UEFA from submitting a bid, Turkey has now withdrawn a bid and Italy has decided to chase the 2032 hosting rights instead.A senior source at the Department of Tourism and Sport told the Irish Mirror that the Government’s official seal would be “a strong indicator of intent and expectation” for UEFA.
The disappointment was then compounded when the Government decided that it was not safe for Dublin to take its place as one of 13 host cities in the rescheduled games last Summer.The English FA came in for heavy criticism after the final was played in Wembley to a packed stadium. UEFA will formally announce the bid received on April 5th and then the bid with the necessary technical detail must be lodged with the soccer governing body by next Spring.
