Atletico Madrid Los Colchoneros looking for a solution

Atletico Madrid’s Champions League round of 16 first leg against Chelsea is not played in the Spanish capital.
This comes as a result of the Spanish government’s extension of restrictions on inbound flights from the UK, as well as South Africa and Brazil, making the Blues impossible for such a trip.
Travelers from the above three countries are not allowed to enter Spain without a ten-day quarantine if they are not citizens or residents of Spain or Andorra due to the apparent variants of the coronavirus that have been detected.
As a result, Los Colchoneros are looking for alternative locations, with Bucharest the most likely city to host the game.
Countries such as Belgium, France, Portugal and Germany are excluded because they have also imposed the same measures as Spain.
