England Announced as Hosts of Women's Euro 2021 With Huge Wembley Final

England will host the Women's European Championships in 2021.

The Football Association did not face any competition in its bid to host the tournament, but they had to meet strict guidelines in order to receive the approval of UEFA.

Details for the schedule of the tournament will now be finalised, but BBC Sport report that the FA's proposal will see the final held at Wembley Stadium in London.

England will qualify automatically as hosts, and they will compete with 15 other nations at the tournament. The draw for qualifying will take place on 22 February 2019 at UEFA headquarters in Nyon.
