France’s Prime Minister Edouard Philippe stated that the return of games would not be authorized before September, even behind closed doors, as part of the next stage of the country’s lockdown plans.
In a statement, Philippe said: “The big sporting affairs cannot occur before September. The 2019-20 football season cannot return.”
It is not yet known whether any teams will be relegated to Ligue 2, with Nimes, Amiens, and Toulouse facing an anxious wait over their topflight future.
This is coming less than a week after the Dutch topflight league cancelled their season.
