Organisers of the Euro 2016 are confident of conducting a safe tournament after unprecedented security measures have been put in place for the football bonanza in France.
"My message is clear: we have no knowledge of targeted, concrete threats within a stadium or other venues at Euro 2016," Jacques Lambert, president of the Euro 2016 committee, was quoted as saying by news agency Xinhua.
"I believe the messages that have come from a number of countries are understandably precautionary. But we are in constant touch with the French security services and they are in contact with their partners in Europe and elsewhere," he added.
Since the recent terror attacks in Paris and Brussels, security has been a major concern for participating teams at the month-long event that will be hosted by France. Players such as German star Jerome Boateng have gone so far as saying that their families will not be in attendance at stadia for fear of a terror threat
