In FIFA the date of resumption of international matches was named
Vice-president of the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) Victor Montagliani named an approximate date of resumption of international games which have been suspended because of spread of the coronavirus infection. The sports functionary assumes that organization of the international matches will not become possible not earlier than 2021 as after the pandemic termination there will be given a priority to internal championships. As AP quotes Montagliani, “I think that domestic football is a priority. September is still in the books, but I would garner to say that I'm not sure it's there on solid ground the way things are trending right now.” In his opinion, even if one gets the green light to play a soccer game, he highly doubts that the first football game will be with the fans to reduce a risk. The Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) and European Club Association (ЕСА) have made a decision that the present football season will come to the end in August.
