•Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games - What do we know so far?
82% Informative
Commonwealth Games is a multi-sport event which takes place every four years .
The Commonwealth Games Federation asked Glasgow to host the games after Victoria in Australia pulled out.
Glasgow 2014 games saw nearly 5,000 athletes from 71 countries take part.
Exact details are due to be released in the coming days once the proposals are officially confirmed.
CGS said their proposal would comprise venues within an eight-mile radius.
This rules out Glasgow 2014 venues Strathclyde Country Park in Motherwell , the diving venue of the Royal Commonwealth Pool in Edinburgh and the Barry Buddon shooting centre in Dundee .
Hampden Park hosted the athletics competitions in 2014 but this is owned by the SFA , which means renting it could come with a hefty price tag.
