Solicitors representing Liverpool fans who "suffered physical and psychological" harm at the 2022 Champions League final in Paris have said Uefa is trying to prevent the case being heard in an English court.
Fans were penned in and teargassed by police outside the Stade de France.
Law firm Leigh Day said the football governing body does not want the claims held at the High Court in Liverpool.
A Uefa representative declined to comment due to the ongoing proceedings.
The law firm wants the case heard in Liverpool but said Uefa said it should not take place anywhere in England on the grounds that any decision regarding actions of the French state, such as the police, should be heard in France.
