NFL is planning to bring a game to Berlin

The league is making heavy efforts to promote American football as an international sport by organizing five games scheduled for 2024. One such game will be played between the New York Giants and the Carolina Panthers in Germany. Some earlier games were played in Munich and Frankfurt, but the league has now revealed that it wants to bring a game to Berlin, as stated by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell during Q&A with fans in Munich.
“I usually tell people, ‘Don’t believe rumors.’ In this case, I might say, ‘Believe it,'” Goodell said, via ESPN. “We’re working on it, but it isn’t finalized. We really feel like Berlin would be a great addition, so we’re looking very hard at that. Our people have been working very hard at it. But I want to add that does not mean we’re not going to be back in Frankfurt and Munich.”
As per CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones, he NFL is seriously considering Abu Dhabi, along with other slots of their next games to be played, as well as Paris, France, Barcelona, Spain, Rome, Italy, Sydney and Melbourne, and Dublin, Ireland. In fact, even Goodell confirmed the league’s interest in Dublin, saying he has “no doubt” American football will be played there soon enough. “I know the Steelers really wanna go there,” Goodell said. “I have no doubt that we’re going to be playing in Ireland. I don’t know if it will be next year, but it’s coming soon.”
