The British government’s in talks with football’s governing body which wants 2,500 delegates to be allowed to fly into the country for the showcase without having to quarantine.

Nicholas says a move like that would likely annoy thousands of Brits who haven’t been able to go abroad for a holiday this year, and alarm some health experts who fear a coronavirus spike.
