A European plan is being formed to resume football around July and August, with domestic leagues told not to abandon competitions yet due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The determination to ensure competitions are “decided on the field” to protect their integrity was outlined in a letter.
It was signed by the heads of Uefa, the European Club Association and European Leagues body and was being sent to their members.
The correspondence was issued hours after the Belgian topflight became the first major European competition to recommend ending its season with the current standings declared final.
“We are confident that football can restart in the months to come — with conditions that will be dictated by public authorities.” Uefa stated in their letter.
