Even the original architect of Euro 2020, former UEFA president Michel Platini, accepted it was “perhaps a bit of a zany idea”. UEFA took the decision to postpone the tournament by 12 months in March of last year as the pandemic took hold across the continent. Part of Platini’s original pitch when the idea of a pan-European 60th anniversary tournament first took shape was that the Euros would be “coming to the fans”. But it could just be that Platini’s zany plan comes off. If it does, we could be in for an unforgettable summer.
