UEFA announced Belfast's Windsor Park is among nine European grounds in the running to host the UEFA Super Cup in '20, according to Matt Slater of the PA.

Declarations of interest at this stage "are not binding and final proposals must be submitted" by March 29 (PA, 1/15). The other eight stadiums that have expressed interest are Tirana, Albania's National Arena; Minsk, Belarus' Dinamo Stadium; Helsinki, Finland's Olympic Stadium; Nice, France's Grand Stade de Nice; Haifa, Israel's Sami Ofer; Almaty, Kazakhstan's Almaty Central Stadium; Chisinau, Moldova's Zimbru Stadium; and Porto, Portugal's Dragão Stadium (UEFA).
