Club competition final venues on Prague agenda

The venues for UEFA's club competition finals in 2017 are the key point on the agenda of the latest meeting of the UEFA Executive Committee in Prague on Monday and Tuesday.

The committee, chaired by UEFA President Michel Platini, is meeting for the first time with its new lineup. Three new members were elected at the 39th Ordinary UEFA Congress in Vienna in March: Sándor Csányi (Hungary), Fernando Gomes (Portugal) and Davor Šuker (Croatia).

The stadiums that will host UEFA's blue-riband club competition events in two years' time will be decided in Prague. They will follow the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza in Milan (UEFA Champions League final), St. Jakob-Park in Basel (UEFA Europa League final) and Lerkendal Stadion in Trondheim (UEFA Super Cup), which will stage the club showpieces in 2016.

UEFA EURO 2016 play-off and final tournament draw procedures are also on the agenda. The group winners and runners-up, as well as the third-placed team with the best record against the nations who finish first, second, fourth and fifth in their group, progress directly to join hosts France in the finals next summer. The other eight third-placed sides will play off over two legs for the remaining four berths. The eight teams will be drawn into four ties, with the first legs taking place on 12/13/14 November 2015, and the return encounters following on 15/16/17 November 2015.

The final tournament draw will take place in Paris on 12 December 2015, with the 24 contenders (hosts France and the 23 qualifiers) drawn into six groups of four teams each (Groups A to F), with the top two in each section plus the four best third-placed sides to advance to the knockout phase. The group stage runs from 10 to 22 June 2016.

Europe's football parliament, the Ordinary UEFA Congress, meets once a year, and the Executive Committee will decide the host associations of the event in 2017 and 2018. UEFA's 54 member associations will convene in 2016 in Budapest, Hungary.

Finally, the committee will deal with the 2015 edition of the UEFA Club Licensing and Financial Fair Play Regulations, which govern UEFA's financial fair play and club licensing measures designed to safeguard the long-term financial stability of European club football.

Tuesday's press conference, which follows the end of the Executive Committee meeting at around 12.00CET, will be streamed live on UEFA.org.

The Executive Committee meeting in Prague will be followed on Tuesday by the final of the UEFA European Under-21 Championship between Sweden and Portugal at Eden Stadium in the Czech capital (20.45CET).
