At least one of the stadiums to host Euro 2032 must be in the South, and Naples is preparing to compete for this prestigious role. This was confirmed by Sports Minister Andrea Abodi during the ANCI assembly, where he reviewed Italy's preparations for the European tournament.
“The working table is permanent, it never closes. We are evaluating nine additional options, because cities like Rome and Milan must also be put in the best conditions to host events of this magnitude”, Abodi explained. "The stadiums are there, but a planning capacity is needed that must materialize, both in Milan and Rome. However, we are thinking about other cities to define two additional places, given that currently the confirmed stadiums are five".
The minister then listed some of the cities already in a stable position in the race: "Turin, Milan and Rome are consolidated realities and have their own stability. However, it is essential to distribute this presence throughout the national territory, and this means that at least one of the stadiums will be in the South".
Abodi stressed that Naples will have to work hard to obtain a place among the host cities. "Naples must compete. Competition is based on the ability to do things well and at the right time. But time is short, and it is essential to speed up." The candidacy of Naples, a city with a great football tradition and a historic stadium like the Maradona, represents a great opportunity for the capital of Campania. However, targeted and timely interventions will be needed to meet the standards required by UEFA and ensure inclusion among the cities protagonists of Euro 2032.
In short
At least one of the stadiums to host Euro 2032 will have to be in the South, and Naples is preparing to enter the competition for this prestigious role.
