England captain Harry Kane makes Euro 2028 vow after Wembley heartache

Jarrod Bowen previews England's clash with Australia

Harry Kane has vowed to be there when football comes home for the Euro 2028 final, insisting he still has “unfinished business” after the final two years ago. UEFA yesterday confirmed that the UK and Ireland bid to host the European Championships in five years’ time, the last remaining in contention, had been successful.

It means that even though he will be nearly 35 when the tournament comes around, Kane will get the chance to help the Three Lions try to go one better than they did when they were beaten on penalties by Italy in the Euro 2020 final.

Asked if that constituted unfinished business, Kane said: “I think so.

“We were so close to doing something really magical in the last Euros. But that’s football.

“It didn’t end the way we wanted it to but for sure there will be a bit between our teeth.

“That won’t be just in Germany next summer for Euro 2024.

“Being at home in 2028, playing games at Wembley will bring back memories of the Euros we played in 2021.

“We will have to wait and see, to win a tournament would be special but to win it in your home country would be a dream come true.

“We had an amazing experience at Euro 2020 in terms of having six of the games at Wembley so it felt like a home tournament for us.

“Although there were not all the fans in the stadium, we still got amazing support. Being here and seeing the atmosphere outside the grounds on the way in on the coach gave us a real special feeling.

“Obviously we came within a couple of kicks of winning the trophy. So that definitely gave us more energy and more belief.”
