The cabinet will announce Tuesday night beginning at 7 p.m. to what extent the crown measures in the Netherlands can be relaxed and if there is any chance of football in the Eredivisie and Keuken Kampioen Division in the coming months. In the afternoon there will be a video conference between the European Football Association UEFA and all other affiliated football associations, including KNVB. According to Algemeen Dagblad Most likely, the Dutch soccer season is over.

The newspaper writes Tuesday that professional soccer has been “the expected scenario” since September 1. During a press conference, Prime Minister Mark Rutte, among other things, will clarify the ban on events that require a license, such as matches in the Eredivisie Division and Keuken Kampioen. In the Netherlands, playing professional football is prohibited until at least June 1, and mayors want to extend that period until September 1.

The KNVB is striving to complete the Eredivisie and Kitchen Champions Division by August 3, but UEFA is likely to delay further if that date is unrealistic due to the crown crisis. “It will be very difficult to finish a season in September or even in October. That would have a big impact on the 2020/21 calendar, but first let’s see when we can start again, “UEFA President Aleksandr Ceferin said earlier this week.

News time He reported Monday night that the cabinet is likely to accept the call from the mayors. Earlier this month, Ajax director Marc Overmars has already expressed for a consultation that he would prefer the season to come to an end. AZ and PSV, among others, supported the Amsterdam club in this.

UEFA is not only discussing the outcome of this season with a conference call with the 55 national federations on Tuesday, but also on Thursday. Secretary General Gijs de Jong, Federal President Just Spee and Director of Professional Soccer Eric Gudde will participate on behalf of the KNVB. The expectation is that on Thursday, when the UEFA executive committee meets on the future of European football, decisions will be made.
