Euro 2020: Decision on capacities for host cities 'delayed until Friday'


A decision on Euro 2020 host cities has been postponed until Friday, Sky Sports News has been told, with UEFA expected to confirm that later on Monday. Nine of the 12 host cities have already given assurances over a minimum capacity for crowds, with Wembley confirming that 25 per cent - around 22,500 fans - will be able to attend the initial three group stage matches and round-of-16 fixture that will be held there. Hampden Park will also have up to 25 per cent of the venue's capacity (around 13,000 fans) available to fans for the four Euro 2020 games scheduled to be played there. Bilbao and Dublin are each due to host three group matches and a round-of-16 game, while Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena is scheduled to stage three group matches and a quarter-final. FIFA executive Alexey Sorokin, who is in charge of the organising committee for one of the host cities, St Petersburg in Russia, said last week players deserve to play in front of tens of thousands of fans.
