Governing body Concacaf is in close communication with local authorities, host venues, and the participating national teams regarding the ongoing protests and hundreds of arrests in Los Angeles due to US President Donald Trump's immigration raids. The protests have prompted concerns from Football Supporters Europe (FSE) and may affect the safety of fans attending the Gold Cup and Club World Cup matches, including Mexico vs Dominican Republic and Paris St-Germain vs Atletico Madrid. Mexico's team has already changed its hotel due to safety concerns. The US authorities have deployed National Guard troops to protect border control agents on enforcement operations.
