FAW keen to host 2027 Women’s Champions League final

The Football Association of Wales (FAW) is one of four national governing bodies that have expressed an interest in hosting the 2027 Women’s Champions League final.

European football's governing body Uefa revealed that Wales, along with Poland, Spain and Switzerland, are potential host countries for the marquee match.

Uefa says that any declarations of interest are "not binding", and the final proposals "must be delivered with the bid dossiers by 19 March 2025".

But the FAW confirmed it intends to make a formal bid to host the game in Cardiff.

"The Football Association of Wales confirms its intention to submit a formal bid to Uefa to host the 2027 Women’s Champions League final at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff," the FAW said in a statement.

"Having submitted a declaration of interest to host the 2027 final, the FAW bid will be developed in collaboration with the Principality Stadium and local partners, highlighting a shared commitment to bringing the prestigious event to Wales.

"The Uefa Women’s Champions League final is one of the most prestigious events in European football, and securing the 2027 final for Cardiff would be a momentous achievement for Wales.

"Hosting this event would serve as a catalyst for the continued development of women’s football in the country, inspiring a new generation of players, coaches and supporters while amplifying the visibility of the sport nationwide."
