Bidding process

So far, three bids have been reported:

  •  Albania and  Serbia – On 9 May 2024, Albania and Serbia confirmed their intent to bid together.[1][2][3][4] Albania originally wanted to bid alone, however the stadium requirements for the tournament led the Albanians to find a partner.[1]

This bid has generated a considerable amount of controversy in both nations due to both nations' dislike of each other in relation to Kosovo and others matters. Back in October 2014, both nations played a UEFA Euro 2016 qualifier in Belgrade, which would later be abandoned after 42 minutes due to several incidents and a pitch invasion during the match, which led to its abandonment. On 20 May 2024, an Albanian fan group protested by spraying paint and gluing photos in front of the offices of the federation.[5]
