UEFA devise new plan to finish the Champions League and Europa League competitions: report

UEFA have reportedly devised a new plan whereby they could finish the Champions League and Europa League competitions in a three-week block during the month of August.

Earlier this month, UEFA indefinitely suspended the Champions League, Europa League and the European Championship playoffs amid the ongoing concerns due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The association’s president Aleksander Ceferin has since admitted that the remaining games could be resumed behind closed doors but also ruled out the possibility of the competitions being played into September.

According to The Mirror, UEFA are hoping to resume the European campaign in August but that would depend on whether the teams still playing in the competition will finish their respective league seasons by then.
