Uefa confirms Russia’s exclusion from Euro 2024 qualifying draw

Russia’s isolation from international sport continues after Uefa confirmed the country would be excluded from qualification for Euro 2024.

Russia has been banned from Uefa and Fifa competitions since it launched its invasion of Ukraine in February, with the Court of Arbitration dismissing an appeal against that ban in July.

Uefa confirmed Germany would qualify as hosts for the tournament, with the qualifying draw scheduled to take place in Frankfurt on October 9th.
