A concerning development in the lead-up to this week’s round of Champions League quarter-finals has on Monday night been confirmed.

ISIL has made public the threat of terrorist attacks on all four of the European fixtures.

Spanish outlet Marca, citing direct sources at the club, has revealed that the alleged threat from the ISIL on the Champions League matches has already been received by the security forces and transferred to Real Madrid.

European football’s most high-profile competition will of course be kicked back into gear on Tuesday night, before continuing into Wednesday.

Marca reiterated that ‘there is no reason for alarm’, but that any and all individuals planning to attend the Champions League’s quarter-finals should be ‘attentive and redouble their vigilance’.
