La liga chief admits season could be cancelled amid coronavirus
According to reports, the President of La Liga, Javier Tebas, has admitted that the possibility of cancelling the current season is being considered due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
In an interview with Spanish newspaper AS, Tebas stated that the league is exploring all options, including cancelling the season, as the situation continues to worsen. He emphasized that the health and safety of players, staff, and fans are the top priority.
Tebas also mentioned that the league is working closely with the Spanish government and health authorities to find a solution. He expressed concerns about the feasibility of resuming the season, citing the difficulty of ensuring the safety of everyone involved.
La Liga has already been suspended since March 12, with the league initially aiming to resume in late June. However, the ongoing pandemic has made it increasingly challenging to restart the season.
The possibility of cancelling the season would have significant implications for the clubs, players, and fans. It would also raise questions about the fate of the Champions League and Europa League, as well as the impact on the transfer market and future seasons.
