Liverpool's Champions League tie with RB Leipzig later month will not take place in Germany after the Reds were denied entry to the country.
The German government has banned all flights from the UK until February 17 in an attempt to address the spread of coronavirus.
There had been an application for a special permit to allow Liverpool to enter the country, with the Reds due to take on Leipzig at the Red Bull Arena in their round of 16 first leg on Tuesday, February 16.
That, though, has been dismissed by the federal police in Germany, prompting a race against time for Leipzig to find an alternative venue.
UEFA remain in conversations with the Bundesliga side over a contingency plan, with a number of options being assessed.
However, swapping the legs of the tie - with Liverpool instead hosting the first leg before travelling to Germany for the return game on March 10 - is not under consideration.
Liverpool are being kept informed of developments, with the onus on Leipzig to find a new venue and cover the costs or run the risk of the Reds being handed a 3-0 win.
Any new location would also have to allow Jurgen Klopp's side to travel, with some reports suggesting London is among the possibilities.
The Reds faced a similar situation in their final group game when a travel ban meant arrangements had to be made for the clash at FC Midtjylland.
Borussia Dortmund were on standby to host the match, only for the Danish side to ultimately be able to host the fixture, which ended in a 1-1 draw.
