UEFA evaluates two ideas: first the leagues and then the Cups or in parallel (ANSA)


Football could also play in the summer to complete national leagues, Champions and Europa League by August. The hypothesis is one of the scenarios that UEFA is considering at the working tables with Federations, Eca, European Leagues and FifPro, opened after the postponement of the European championship for the coronavirus emergency.

These are days of continuous teleconferencing meetings in the world of football. Today an informal Serie A League took place and tomorrow a new appointment is scheduled between the president of the FIGC, Gabriele Gravina, and the leaders of the Leagues, after yesterday's, to evaluate the anti-crisis measures to ask the government .

Still no one ventures hypothesis to start again. But at European level, according to what is learned, two solutions are being evaluated: a sequential one, in which priority is given to the conclusion of the national championships, after which the last rounds of the European Cups would be played; and one that plans to continue the championships, the Champions and the Europa League in parallel.

Obviously, prolonging the season until August would lead to an extension of two months of the expiring contracts and the forward sliding of the summer market window.
