Germany's Bundesliga has warned that any attempt to move the 2022 World Cup in Qatar to the winter could lead to legal challenges by European leagues. Temperatures reach 50C in Qatar during June, when World Cups normally start.
" If countries like England see a chance of a re-vote they will force a re-vote "
Christian Seifert, Bundesliga boss.

Uefa president Michel Platini says the World Cup could be moved but European leagues might be disrupted for up to three seasons if that happens.
.
Bundesliga chief executive Christian Seifert said "I am not sure legally you can say 'we'll just play in winter'."
.
Sepp Blatter, president of world governing body Fifa, said last week it is "not rational and reasonable'' to play in the summer heat in Qatar, but has stopped short of advocating a winter World Cup.
Fifa should also learn to take competitions of this callibre to well known countries that would deliver utmost satisfaction to participating countries.
