FIFA President Gianni Infantino has said the 2021 Club World Cup should be postponed in order to make way for the rescheduled European Championships and Copa America tournaments.
Simon Evans of Reuters reported the FIFA chief wants to create space in next year's football calendar, with the governing body set to hold a conference call Wednesday to confirm the delay.
The Club World Cup could be expanded to become a 24-team competition and be given a later fixed date.
In a statement on FIFA's official website, Infantino said:
"The world is facing an unprecedented health challenge and clearly a global and collective response is needed.
