Germany Submits Bid To Host Euro 2024

The German Football Association (DFB) has officially submitted its bid to host the 2024 European Championships.

President Reinhard Grindel handed over the bid documents to UEFA on Tuesday, alongside bid ambassador and former Germany captain Philipp Lahm.

The DFB declared its interest to host the tournament in March last year, and has submitted its dossier ahead of the 27th April deadline.

Grindel said of the proposal: “We are submitting an excellent bid concept for a perfectly organised tournament, which offers a great opportunity for UEFA to further develop European football. UEFA Euro 2024 staged in the heart of Europe will enable all of the participants to be given the best possible support by their fans.”

Germany have won the Euros three times and last hosted the competition in 1988.
