The Millennium Stadium in Cardiff is expected to be announced tomorrow as the
venue for this season's FA Cup final.
The 72,000-capacity Welsh ground is also set to play host to the Charity Shield, the Worthington Cup final and the Nationwide League play-offs.
The stadium is the venue for a joint news conference being held tomorrow by the Football Association and the Football League, when the announcement is set to be made.
FA head of communications Paul Newman said: "The FA have always made it clear that the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff is our preferred option for staging the FA Cup final while Wembley is being rebuilt.
"We are delighted that lengthy negotiations are now near to a successful conclusion and we expect to make an official announcement at midday tomorrow."
