UEFA issues brief update on EURO 2020

European football's governing body, UEFA has today issued the following statement:

“UEFA intends to hold EURO 2020 in the format and the venues confirmed earlier this year and we are working closely with all host cities on preparations. Given the uncertainties surrounding Covid – over which neither UEFA nor the local organising bodies have control - it is too early to say now whether those games in June and July will have restrictions either on fans or even their staging. UEFA’s efforts are focused on planning for a tournament in all 12 venues with fans. Decisions that run counter to that plan could be made much nearer the time if necessary, but there are presently no plans to change any venue.”
