Boris Johnson suggests Ukraine host Euro 2028 despite UK and Ireland bid

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson appeared to suggest Ukraine should be awarded the right to host Euro 2028 – despite the UK and Ireland being in the running for the same event. Johnson was giving his reaction to Wednesday’s shock news that Russia had declared an interest in bidding for the 2028 and 2032 continental tournaments, despite the country being banned from international football over their invasion of Ukraine.
