The European Football Association (UEFA) saw today that it is "early" and "unjustified" for any local championship to take the decision to cancel the season permanently due to the outbreak of the new Corona virus, a day after the Belgian League's decision to end the season, and " Accept the current ranking, as a final rating. "
In a statement he sent jointly with the European Clubs League and European Leagues, and (AFP) obtained a copy, the Slovenian European Union President Alexander Chevirin expressed his "confidence in the possibility of the return of competitions" in the coming months, adding, "We believe that any decision to end local competitions" At this point, it is premature, and not justified. "
It is expected that the General Assembly will ratify the decision of the Belgian League to stop the season permanently on April 15th, and the resulting coronation for the club team, Bruges, since it was 15 points ahead of its closest attachment, before suspending the league until the end of this month.
The league witnessed the end of 29 of the 30 stages in the regular league, before the start of the "Playoff" period, in which the first six clubs were to participate in the ranking. As a result of the decisive round, the first-place player qualifies to the group stage from the Champions League, runner-up to the third preliminary round of the first continental competition, and the third to the decisive round of the European League "Europa League".
The board of directors of the association, which met via video Thursday, decided "unanimously that it is not desirable, regardless of the scenario, to continue the competition after June 30", and wished "not to resume competitions for the 2019-2020 season." In practice, the playoff role, which is being played in the mini league, was canceled.
