The European Football Association (UEFA) will hold a detailed meeting tomorrow and tomorrow to determine the dates and form of completing its club competitions, in addition to some issues related to the European Cup 2020 that were postponed to the summer of next year due to "Covid-19". The federation suspended the Champions League and "Europa League" competitions in March, the same month in which the decision was taken to postpone the national team championship from its scheduled date this year to the summer of 2021.

My club competition was stopped at the roundabout station for the final price. (UEFA) acknowledged that one of the goals of the postponement of the European Cup is to allow the national championships to complete the local season, and consequently the continental, to reduce as much as possible the high financial losses that the clubs will incur in the event of a complete cessation of the season.

With the majority of the major national championships (with the exception of France) gradually returning behind closed doors, the federation is working to find a formula to complete the two club competitions, at a likely date that will be August, which will also give additional space for the national championships to end its resumed season, before its teams leave the continental competitions.

In the agenda he published on his website, he indicated that the Executive Committee meeting, which extends for two days, will discuss the completion of the Champions League and the European League "Europa League" for this season, the conditions for qualifying and qualifying for the next season, in addition to several things, most notably the schedule of the European Cup and host cities to her.

According to press reports, the federation is considering completing the two club competitions in a format other than usual, which is closer to a "final championship" in which eight teams participate, and is likely to be hosted by the Portuguese capital Lisbon, which will mean the transfer of the final from its previously scheduled place, that is, the Turkish city of Istanbul.

Four matches remain in the second leg of the Champions League final, after the Italian clubs Atalanta, German Leipzig, Atletico Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, qualified for the quarter-finals.

In addition, 10 matches remain in the final price for the "Europa League" distributed as follows: two games from the first leg, and the entire second leg. Reports indicate that WIFA is considering completing the remainder of the final price in the two competitions, before collecting all the teams in one place to take the remaining stages in the form of exclusive roles from one match, instead of the home and away matches.

Reports suggest that the final of the Champions League will be on August 23 in Lisbon, which means it will be moved from its previously scheduled place in Istanbul. In the current circumstances, bringing the teams together in one place will limit movement and travel relative to the teams.

While the vast majority of national championships that have resumed their activities have done so behind closed doors, the question remains regarding allowing fans to attend continental matches, especially since European countries are gradually reopening their borders to foreign visitors, albeit with strict restrictions and procedures.

The Champions League final was scheduled to take place at the Ataturk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul (on May 30). Turkish officials hope their city will remain the host of the final. "I have no doubt that it will be held in the best way in Turkey. We are confident that we will receive good news on June 17," Turkish Sports Minister Mehmet Kassaboglu said in comments this month.

But the American newspaper "New York Times" was the first to disclose last month that the continental football authorities are determined to change the hosting location, to compensate for Istanbul by granting it hosting the final match of the Champions League in the coming years, when the mobility of fans in large numbers becomes safe.

As for "Europa League", the Polish city of Gdansk was decided for the final, but its fate may be similar to Istanbul, with reports of UEFA's intention to follow a similar formula regarding its second important competition.

The German newspaper "Bild" reported last week that the closing stages of the European League competition might be held in an area adjacent to the city of Cologne.
One of the main points on the research agenda will be the European Cup, which became between June 11 and July 11, 2021, after it was scheduled between June 12 and July 12, 2020. The tournament, which celebrates this year the sixtieth anniversary of its launch, was decided in 12 cities in 12 countries. However, the current circumstances may require reducing the number of cities to limit as much travel and transportation as possible throughout the continent.

The Slovenian President (UEFA), Slovenian Alexander Ceverin, recently hinted that the number of the 12 cities may not remain constant for the 2021 championship. He pointed out that there are "some issues" related to three host cities, stressing the flexibility of the Federation in this regard. "We will look more into it, and in principle we will hold the championship in 12 cities. But unless that is possible, we are ready to establish it in ten cities, nine, or eight."

According to the website (UEFA), Chevirin is scheduled to hold a press conference in the deliberations of the first day of the meeting of the Federation Executive Committee.
