The Turkish Football Federation submitted a final bid to host the 2028 or 2032 editions of the EURO competition, UEFA announced on Wednesday.

"The Turkish Football Federation submitted their bid dossier to host either EURO 2028 or 2032 and the Italian Football Federation submitted their bid dossier for EURO 2032," European football’s governing body said in a statement.

Also putting them in the running, the United Kingdom and Ireland (represented by the football associations of England, Northern Ireland, the Republic of Ireland, Scotland, and Wales) submitted a joint bid for EURO 2028.
