Uefa monitoring virus outbreak closely. FMTNews UEFA EURO
ROME: It is not yet clear whether Euro 2020 will be affected by the coronavirus outbreak which has struck Italy, one of the 12 host countries, a vice-president of European soccer body Uefa said on Tuesday.
A tourist from Lombardy, the worst-affected area, was diagnosed with the virus while on holiday in Sicily, and the regions of Tuscany and Liguria both reported their first cases. “If the data does not give us different indications, it may well be that from March 2 we will not extend the ban on sporting events,” sports minister Vincenzo Spadafora told reporters.“But safety and health come before anything else – before a match or before a full stadium.”
