FA to net £2m boost after Jacksonville Jaguars agree to play game at Wembley this year - and NFL side in talks over another multi-year agreement to stage a match at England's national stadium

The NFL will return to Wembley for the first time in three years this autumn providing a £2 million boost to the Football Association’s finances.

Sportsmail has learned that Jacksonville Jaguars have agreed to bring one of their eight ‘home’ games in the 2022 campaign to Wembley, in addition to two matches in the NFL’s newly created international round that will be staged at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The Jaguars, the franchise of Fulham owner Shahid Khan who failed in his £600 million bid to buy Wembley four years ago, played one match each season at the national stadium from 2013 and 2019, although that contract has now expired.
