Having seen the PSG defender denied entry to the UK, Aleksander Ceferin wonders what could happen if Barcelona reach the Champions League final
Lionel Messi and Neymar not being allowed to enter the United Kingdom for this year's Champions League final is a scenario that concerns UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin, who warned Brexit could damage Great Britain's hopes of hosting major tournaments.
Cardiff's Principality Stadium will host the June showpiece and Barca will need to turn around a 4-0 last-16 first-leg deficit to Paris Saint-Germain to keep their hopes of playing in the final alive.
If Luis Enrique's men were to complete that remarkable comeback and progress to the final then it is possible there could be issues with Messi and Neymar – who both have proceedings surrounding tax evasion ongoing – gaining entry to the country.
