Ireland looks set to be named this week as co-host of the Euro 2028 tournament, with no rivals to the FAI's joint bid with Northern Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and England. 

Ireland will have to qualify for the Euro 2028 finals they co-host with the UK associations but the route to an expanded 32-team showpiece should be straightforward.
