Croke Park will not be joining Lansdowne Road in the Euro 2028 bid, with the unbuilt Casement Park submitted as the second stadium on the island of Ireland.

The joint UK and Ireland bid was lodged ahead of Wednesday’s deadline. It remains the strong favourite to land the 24-match tournament but UEFA’s executive committee won’t vote on its candidacy against Turkey’s bid until their October meeting.
