UEFA insist Euro 2012 will take place in Poland and Ukraine as planned, despite rumours suggesting the tournament will be moved to Spain.

Infrastructure problems continue to plague the joint hosts' plans, with particular concerns expressed about delays in the reconstruction of Kiev's Olympic stadium.

A report in Spanish newspaper ABC suggested UEFA president Michel Platini had asked Spanish federation officials whether they would be able to step in as replacement hosts.

However, UEFA's director of communications, William Gaillard, insisted: "I know absolutely nothing about such a meeting.

"There are a lot of stories going around about Euro 2012 and, as we have said before, we will be dealing with the issue in July with the visit of our president.

"Anything you hear before that is devoid of reality."

Scotland and Italy have also been mentioned as a potential alternative venues.
