Russia reject Warsaw calls to move squad

"We have proposed four other locations to the Russian team," said Poland's Sports Ministry spokeswoman Katarzyna Kochaniak.

Russia's national team booked one floor at the recently-renovated Bristol Hotel, one of the oldest and most prestigious in Warsaw and neighbouring the Polish presidential palace.

"Our team will stay in the same hotel which was originally booked. Nothing will force us to change our plans," FA spokesman Nikolai Komarov was quoted as saying by Russian media.

"We are sure that the tournament's organisers would provide all the necessary security at the highest level," he added.

"We want the event to focus on soccer emotions, while the dates of June 10 and 12 may prove tense," Kochaniak added.
