                          ‘Business as usual’ for Qatar World Cup organizers

                          The diplomatic crisis that has left Qatar at odds with its Gulf neighbors has had "no impact'' on the country's preparations for the 2022 World Cup, according to a source close to the organizers.

                          Speaking to Press Association Sport from Doha, a source close to the Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy said it was "business as usual'' for the organizers.

                          "Construction is ongoing and we have just opened the first of our eight proposed stadiums for 2022 — the redeveloped Khalifa International. That was a huge moment for the committee,'' he said.

                          Qatar's World Cup preparations have felt no impact from the country's ongoing diplomatic crisis.

                          "We have regular updates from all the contractors and they are saying there has been no impact from the political situation so far.

                          "As I understand it, their supply chains are OK for the moment and, whether it is a case of plan B or plan C, they are not predicting any problems for the foreseeable future.

                          "The change here over the last five years has been phenomenal and be it the airport expansion, new metro and expressways or the work on the port, everything is still on track.''

                          When the crisis erupted, FIFA issued a short statement to say it is in "regular contact'' with the organizing committee, before FIFA president Gianni Infantino told two Swiss newspapers last weekend he did not believe Qatar's hosting of the World Cup was in danger, as it was still five years away.

                          The source in Doha said FIFA was in "constant dialogue'' with the organizers, as well as speaking regularly to the "highest levels of government''.

                          World football's governing body is also still considering Qatar's proposal to stage the World Cup in only eight venues.

                          Its original bid promised 12 stadiums, but that plan has gradually been reduced, along with the budget, as there are concerns about the legacy costs of having so many world-class sports venues in a country of just 2.7 million people, the majority of whom are foreign nationals involved in the country's rapid development.

                          The 40,000-seat stadium at Al-Wakrah is the first of seven entirely new venues scheduled to be completed next year, with the 60,000-seat Al Bayt Stadium next to be finished. Qatar hopes to have all of its stadiums finished by 2020.
