Leading digital TV operator StarTimes is set to broadcast the Euro2020 event across Sub-Saharan Africa, Brandnewsday confirms.

This Wednesday marks 100 days until the scheduled start of UEFA Euro 2020. While the exact location of the top European football tournament remains uncertain, COVID-19 won’t prevent the event to take place again this year. 

The opening match of Euro 2020 between Turkey and Italy is due to be played in Rome on June 11, while seven matches are set to go ahead at Wembley in London, including both semifinals and the final.

European football’s governing body UEFA has so far stuck to its original plan to host the event in 12 different cities. However, it has given all host cities until early April to say if they will be in a position to accommodate spectators inside stadiums and at what percentage of capacity.

“Fans are such a big part of what makes football special,” said UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin in his most recent public address on the matter in January.

“We must allow ourselves the maximum space to allow their return to the stadiums.”
