'But even if you can raise the funds, can you build it in time?'
Rebuilding Casement Park in time for Euro 2028 will be “really, really difficult”, Northern Ireland Secretary Hilary Benn has said.
Speaking to reporters in Derry, Mr Benn said “time is running out” and there is a “big gap” between the funding that has been committed and the funding that is needed. He said he could not say what the outcome would be, but it was a “very practical question” of being able to raise sufficient funds and building the stadium in time.
