Sport Events Cancelled due to Coronavirus Outbreak

We could see some big stars at olympic men's football tournament if only it isn't cancelled.

 

No cups in the summer + The european season will end late so that probably means the next one won't start as early as always in August, that will maybe help to get players released by the clubs.

Eh, even if by some miracle the European leagues and CL will finish by July, we just simply won't have a summer break, and the next season will start as usual. Going back to the regular schedule without any delays will be far more important than having a summer break.

But Euro and Copa America are now moved to the summer 2021, meaning the season will have to finish as early as the beginning of June 2021, so they will probably have to start in August. Also, transfer window is very active during July and August, many players will be busy with that.

But the rules of Olympic Football mean that it is mostly an U-23 competition for the men.

Tennis - Roland Garros/French Open has been rescheduled.

So this would mean it would start only one week after U.S. Open.

Roland Garros has been postponed to the last week of September.

 

Dare I say the entire clay season will be scraped soon and quite frankly so will the grass season IMO.
