Champions League players Real Madrid, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain or Lille are in danger of not relying on their unvaccinated players against COVID-19 for some of the upcoming elimination matches in the European tournaments. This was acknowledged by UEFA after a request from ESPN.
A law banning unvaccinated people from participating in sporting events will take effect in France next Monday. The restriction also applies to spectators who want to attend the events. Real and Chelsea will visit there as part of the round of 16 battles in the Champions League, respectively against Paris Saint-Germain and Lille.
However, France has three more representatives in the Europa League and the Conference League - Lyon, Monaco and Marseille, which means that six more clubs are also likely to suffer.
UEFA may ask French clubs to offer another stadium outside their home country.
