Russia's bids for hosting the men's Euro 2028 and Euro 2032 tournaments have been blocked by UEFA in the latest sanctions imposed against the country.
The latest sanctions come amid Russia's continued invasion of Ukraine, with many world governments and bodies taking action against the country as a result of the war.
After confirming its interest in hosting the international tournaments back in March, which the UK and Ireland, and Turkey, have also declared an interest in hosting, Russia's bids have been declared ineligible by Europe's football governing body.
UEFA stated that the bid was ineligible in accordance with article 16.02 of the bid regulations, which states that "each bidder shall ensure that it does not act in a manner that could bring UEFA, any other bidder, the bidding procedure or European football into disrepute."
Following suspensions by FIFA and UEFA "until further notice" back in February, Russian clubs and national teams now face further restrictions on the competitions in which they can compete too.
The latest ban means that Russian clubs will not be able to compete in either the men's or women's Champions League, Europa League or Conference League campaigns for the 2022-23 season.
In addition, the women's national team has been barred from competing in the Euro 2022 tournament this summer, and also prohibited from competing in the qualification for the 2023 World Cup too.
