Eurostadium

In March 2015, the City of Brussels council chose the Ghelamco/BAM Consortium as best candidate to finance, build and exploit the stadium.^[6] During the years that followed, however, the project was plagued by numerous political delays.^[7][8] Anderlecht eventually pulled out of the project in February 2017.^[9]

Because of the delays, concerns rose that the stadium would not be built in time for Euro 2020, or even at all.^[10] On 7 December 2017, the UEFA Executive Committee decided, due to these delays and the uncertainty that the stadium would be completed in time, to remove Brussels as a host city for Euro 2020. The games scheduled to be held there were instead awarded to Wembley Stadium in London, which meant that London would now host a total of seven matches (this increased to eight during the actual tournament, following the removal of Dublin as a host due to sanitary issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic).^{[11][12][13][14]}

On 30 January 2018, Flemish Minister Joke Schauvliege rejected the application from Ghelamco for an environmental permit, and as a result, the project was cancelled.^[15]
