Aleksander Ceferin warns Euro 2032 'will not be played' in Italy if infrastructure is not ready

UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin said, 'Italian politicians should perhaps ask themselves why Italy has some of the worst football infrastructure in Europe'.

'It is not the federation's fault, but the public authorities'. 'The situation is very bad,' he said, speaking to Gazzetta dello Sport.

'Italian stadiums are far behind those of other major nations'. Italy is scheduled to co-host Euro 2032 with Türkiye.

'Euro 2032 is scheduled and will take place, I hope the infrastructure will be ready. Otherwise, the tournament will not be played in Italy'.

His comments arrive as Italy face another World Cup absence after a play-off final with Bosnia and Herzegovina finished 1-1 after extra time, then 1-4 on penalties.
