Manchester United: The Etihad Stadium will host the England team at the 2028 European Cup

6686 Sports News on November 5 According to the "Manchester Evening News", the Etihad Stadium, the home team of Manchester City Club, will host the England team's competition in the 2028 European Cup.

Previously, the England national team’s games were basically held at Wembley Stadium. The media learned that the Etihad Stadium has been selected to host one of the three group matches of the England team’s 2028 European Cup.

Manchester City currently refuses to comment on this, but before the 2028 European Cup schedule is announced next week, the Etihad Stadium has more advantages over other competition venues.

With the North Stand expansion project expected to be completed in 2026, this means that during international matches, Manchester will have hundreds of thousands of tickets available to watch games.

In addition to football culture and professional facilities, Manchester's convenient public transportation and affordable accommodation options are also one of its advantages.

Manchester City operations director Wilson told "Manchester Evening": "What better way to demonstrate the confidence of this city than for a football club to participate and host high-profile competitions?"

"We have hosted music awards ceremonies, the NBA will be here in 2027, and we will be here in 2028 We are also working with the city to seek and bid for other sports events. "

"It's not just about the venues and venues and how they benefit, it's about the wider economic benefits of the city, such as people coming here to eat in restaurants during the day and staying in hotels at night. Think it's a good thing for Manchester. ”

“The more events there are, the more people come to the city, the more the economy will prosper and the more jobs there will be to achieve our goal of being an open tourist destination every day of the year. ”
