Serie A giants Inter Milan have cancelled their pre-season tour of England, citing safety fears. They had been due to play Leicester on Monday evening, followed by matches against Crystal Palace, Norwich and Portsmouth.
A statement in English on Inter's website said: "Football has taken a step back because of increasing serious events which touch the sensitivity of everyone. For this reason, and given the situation, the club has decided to cancel the team's tour of England."
According to Norwich City's official website, the Canaries received a fax from Inter today citing the "increased threat" of terrorism as the reason.
