It is high time that Bulgaria has a modern stadium that can host finals of European club tournaments. This opinion was expressed by FIFA President Gianni Infantino and UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin during the gala evening “100 years Bulgarian Football.”

“There is a project for 3 stadiums in our country. If we can build at least one, it would be of great benefit to Bulgaria,” said Hristo Stoichkov during the event. For several months now, the only Bulgarian winner of the “Golden Ball” has been responsible for FIFA infrastructure projects.

In addition to Infantino and Čeferin, the event on the occasion of 100 years of Bulgarian football was attended by presidents of football unions from over 40 countries. The gala evening was also attended by the President of Bulgaria Rumen Radev.
