In the statement made by UEFA, it was stated that the UEFA Executive Committee will convene in an extraordinary way on February 25 at 12:00 CET in order to evaluate the situation between Russia and Ukraine.

After the meeting, it was emphasized that “necessary decisions can be taken” on the subject, but no details were given.

UEFA’s May 28, Russia’s St. The Champions League final, scheduled to be held at the Krestovsky Stadium in St. Petersburg, is expected to change its location.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, in his speech in the parliament, said that “a football organization cannot be organized in Russia, which occupies the sovereign countries”. The final match of St. London Mayor Sadiq Khan, who called for the removal of St. Petersburg, also noted that they were ready to host this struggle.

UEFA also postponed the Youth League match, which was planned to be played on Wednesday, March 2, between Dynamo Kiev and Sporting Lisbon in Kiev.
