'It is a pity' - Genk boss Wolf discusses Belgian Pro League cancellation

Genk head coach Hannes Wolf says "it is a pity" that the Belgian Pro League has been cancelled due to coronavirus, with his side missing out on a place in Europe due to the decision.

The league's board of directors announced the decision to void the 2019-20 campaign last week, meaning the final fixture of the season will not be played.

An official statement read: "The board of directors unanimously decided that it was not desirable, whatever the scenario envisaged, to continue the competition after June 30."
