There will be only one national cup for French football teams next season. The Professional Football League (LFP) announced Wednesday the "suspension" of the League Cup next season. Only the Coupe de France continues in addition to the championships.
Since 1994, the League Cup has opposed first and second division clubs. "This decision will lighten the competition schedule, give players more recovery time and offer an extra place in the European Cups via the Ligue 1 standings at the end of the 2020-2021 season. ", says the LFP, faced with a lack of interest from television broadcasters.
