UEFA is set to decide on the venue for the Finalissima between Spain and Argentina by the end of next week, amid ongoing uncertainty over Qatar's ability to host the match.
The match, originally scheduled for March 27 at Lusail Stadium in Doha, is highly unlikely to be held in Qatar after the country's football association suspended tournaments indefinitely.
According to a Reuters report, Qatar wants the match held in Doha, but any change in the venue would require an agreement between the Spanish FA, UEFA, CONMEBOL, FIFA and the Argentine FA.
UEFA stated that discussions are ongoing with local organisers, and a final decision is expected by the end of next week, with no alternative venue being considered at this stage.
The Spanish FA has been seeking clarity, as only three weeks remain until the match, which could be held in London, Rome or Milan instead.
The 2022 edition was held at Wembley Stadium, where Argentina beat Italy, but on March 27, Wembley is slated to host England vs Uruguay.
