"UEFA is monitoring and carefully assessing all developments of the situation in cooperation with CONMEBOL and the [local organizing committee]. European's football government body told The Associated Press on Monday."
"The solution, as I understand, would be to find another venue, if possible, while the matches can't be played there. I think that's pretty much the direction the negotiations are heading. People are working on it at all levels."
UEFA is closely monitoring developments regarding the Finalissima between European champions Spain and Copa América winners Argentina scheduled for March 27 at Lusail Stadium in Doha, Qatar.
