And according to L’Equipe’s information, their plan is to suspend the Champions League and Europa League, pushing Euro 2020 back a year to give them more wiggle room with the calendar.
Any decision to delay Euro 2020 would involve negotiations with FIFA, who are planning to host the revamped Club World Championship in 2021.
