Tensions are brewing over the placement of ice hockey events during the 2030 Winter Olympics in France, with the Paris Entertainment Company stepping forward to offer arenas in the capital as potential hosts.

The bid comes in response to Nice Mayor Eric Ciotti's opposition to converting the Allianz Arena into a temporary rink, a move compounded by ongoing leadership conflicts within the organizing committee.

Sports minister Marina Ferrari is exploring alternative solutions, while the International Olympic Committee is set to finalize venues by June amid a backdrop of resignations and intra-committee discord.
