The Champions Trophy will not take place this summer! This competition which opposes the winner of Ligue 1 each year to that of the Coupe de France will be postponed for the third consecutive year. This is indeed what reports The team.
The French sports daily indicates that the Professional Football League (LFP) would have decided to postpone the meeting, which must oppose Paris Saint-Germain to Reims or OM, due to the calendar in charge of the capital's club.
The participation of PSG in the Club World Cup, which will take place from June 15 to July 13, thus makes it impossible to hold the Champions Trophy this summer. Faced with this situation, the LFP studies several solutions to find a new date.
The champions trophy next winter?
Traditionally disputed a week before the kick -off of the French championship, the Champions Trophy could take place during the winter, as was the case this year. The team
reveals that the date of December 23 would be envisaged by the League.
But this possibility is not unanimous since the UNFP, the union of professional footballer, would oppose it. For the moment, we do not know where or when this match will officially take place.
