UEFA are advising leagues not to cancel their seasons
European leagues have been urged not to "abandon" their seasons, after officials revealed they are working towards plans to resume games from July.
UEFA, the European Club Association [ECA] and European Leagues [EL] have written to all 55 member associations, including clubs and leagues, and called on them to "walk united" as they tackle growing issues from the coronavirus pandemic.
UEFA wants all leagues to wait till July. Then players and referees can play in isolation.
