It would be "logical" that Barcelona, ​​at the head of the Liga in the frozen classification, be crowned champion of Spain if the season were to stop definitively because of the coronavirus pandemic, estimated Thursday evening the coach of Barça Quique Setién . If the La Liga did not resume for the 2019/20 season, who would be the champion? Barça, leading with two points ahead of Real Madrid after the 27th day, the last played, the weekend of 6-8 March?

“Obviously, it would make sense. But it could be another team. I would not like to be a champion like that, ”said Setién on radio Cadena Ser. "I would like to come back as soon as possible to avoid causing as much damage as possible to football, but the reality is that we are experiencing a serious problem," said Setién. For coach blaugrana, if the Liga resumes, it will be "almost safe" without an audience. "In camera it will be a little sad, but in truth we all want to play, even if it is without an audience," he said.
