Uefa is "not worried" that some Women's Euro 2025 matches will clash with the Fifa men's Club World Cup, says managing director Nadine Kessler.Switzerland is hosting Euro 2025 from 2-27 July, meaning five or six matches are likely to be played at the same time as some in the men's competition.
"We must also stick to our plan because I think it's important we get a professional, respected international calendar in place for women's football. We have to co-exist."BBC Sport asked Fifa to justify the scheduling clash with Euro 2025 this month. "While Fifa accepts that both the men's and women's international match calendars are constrained by obvious limitations, this was deemed to be the most balanced solution."Uefa is aiming to sell out all matches at Euro 2025 and make it the most watched women's European football tournament.
"It's already at the edge for Switzerland to be able to do this Euros. I think they waited for the right moment to ask for it," said Kallen.
