Poland, in a joint bid with Ukraine, is bidding to host the event.
The bid will compete against those from the football associations of Italy and a joint bid from Croatia and Hungary, with the winning bid announced in December this year.
Aditya Mittal, president and CFO, Mittal Steel said: “We are one of the largest foreign investors in Poland and believe that the investment we have made will have significant economic benefit for the country.
“However, we want our involvement to be more than this and view our position as lead sponsor as a sign of our commitment to the people of Poland. Football is the number one sport in the country and if the bid is successful it would give Poland a unique opportunity to host a global sporting event of unprecedented magnitude.”
Mittal Steel’s exclusive sports sponsorship consultants, TWI and World In Motion, brokered the deal.
