Paris police will “considerably boost security measures” for the Champions League quarterfinal between Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona this week, French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin told journalists Tuesday.

The heightened security presence follows a threat from the Islamic State terror group against the Parc des Princes and other European soccer stadiums hosting Champions League matches, Darmanin said.

In a statement to CNN, European soccer governing body UEFA said that it is “aware” of the “alleged terrorist threats” and is “closely liaising with the authorities at the respective venues.” The spokesperson added that all matches will go ahead as scheduled with “appropriate security arrangements in place.”

Meanwhile, London’s Metropolitan Police said that a robust policing plan has been implemented for the Champions League quarterfinal between Arsenal and Bayern Munich at the Emirates Stadium following the terror threats.

“The UK terrorism threat level remains at ‘substantial’ meaning an attack is likely, and we work closely with colleagues from across Counter Terrorism Policing in planning for events here in London, to take into account any relevant information that could help us to keep those attending safe,” said Deputy Assistant Commissioner Ade Adelekan.
