Copa America champion Chile set to face Euro 2016 winner

CONMEBOL and UEFA are in discussions to set up a match between the Euro 2016 winner and Copa America champion Chile.

Copa America Centenario champion Chile could face the Euro 2016 winner in a one-off game, according to CONMEBOL president Alejandro Dominguez.

Chile secured back-to-back Copa triumphs after defeating Argentina in the special-edition Centenario tournament Sunday, held in the United States.

While Chile's 2015 title already confirmed its spot in the 2017 Confederations Cup, Dominguez said there has been a proposal submitted to UEFA for a game against the European champion.

The game is subject to the schedule of both nations, with Chile set for World Cup qualifiers in the coming months.
