England risk Euro ban over regulator plans: Uefa
The Straits Times
|September 16, 2024
Uefa has warned the UK government that England risk a ban from the Euro 2028 tournament they are co-hosting, if Prime Minister Keir Starmer goes ahead with existing plans for a men's football regulator, the British TOTO media reported on Sept 14.
-
In a letter to Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy, obtained by The Times of London and the BBC, general secretary of European football's governing body Theodore Theodoridis said that there should be "no government interference in the running of football".
According to the letter, Theodoridis cautioned against plans outlined in the King's Speech to give the new regulator the power to oversee clubs in England's top five leagues, saying the game's independence was a "fundamental requirement".
"One particular area of concern stems from one of Uefa's fundamental requirements, which is that there should be no government interference in the running of football," he wrote.
