“We need to show the whole world that we are ready for the next major tournament” – Pimenov on the RFU’s willingness to apply to host the European Championship

Former Russian national team striker Ruslan Pimenov called the RFU’s desire to submit a bid to host the 2036 European Championship or Euro 2040 an excellent idea.

RFU Secretary General Maxim Mitrofanov told on Wednesday that Russia was ready at any time to submit a bid to host the European Championship in 2036 or 2040.

– Good idea. We need to show the world that we are ready for the next major tournament. Are there any chances of winning the application? They are still there,” Pimenov told the correspondent.

Previously, it became known that the 2028 European Football Championship will be held in Ireland and Great Britain, and in 2032 the tournament will be hosted by Italy and Turkey. The UEFA Executive Committee recognized the RFU’s bid to host these two championships as “inappropriate”.
