Following concerns over the quality of the playing surface at the Gradski Stadion in Podgorica, UEFA has confirmed that the Nations League match between Montenegro and Cymru on 9 September will be moved to Nikšić.
The match will now be played at the City Stadium, which is home to FK Sutjeska and regularly hosts Montenegro’s U21 matches.
The Football Association of Wales acknowledges the inconvenience that this announcement will have on Cymru’s travelling fans, who have already planned for Podgorica.
Therefore, the FAW is currently in discussions with UEFA and the Football Association of Montenegro to limit the disruption caused by this late announcement to the Cymru National Team and The Red Wall.
The FAW will provide an update when further information is confirmed.
Update:
28/08 – The Football Association of Montenegro has confirmed that the original ticket allocation provided to the FAW will be honoured. The FAW does not expect any additional tickets to be made available.
