League
Poland, Hungary, Greece and Cyprus are prepared to act
as “neutral hubs” and host matches in the Champions League or
Europa League qualifying rounds if the coronavirus disrupts next
season, UEFA said Thursday.
The pandemic has forced UEFA to schedule the last three rounds
of this season’s Champions League in Portugal, and the governing
body told its 55 member federations Thursday that this kind of
arrangement may happen again.
At the video general meeting on Thursday the four nations all
offered dates and venues for early round fixtures next season.
“In order to comply with travel restrictions and quarantine
requirements issued by authorities, some matches may need to be
moved to neutral countries/stadia,” said UEFA in a statement.
The 2020/21 Champions League preliminary rounds start in
Switzerland on Saturday when Tre Fiori of San Marino take on
Linfield of Northern Ireland, and Kosovo’s Drita play Inter
d’Escaldes of Andorra.
UEFA also suggested that international games between member
states in September could take place at neutral venues.
