UEFA president Aleksander Ceferin has accepted that so much uncertainty around the coronavirus pandemic makes any forward planning impossible, admitting the current season may be ''lost.'' "Nobody knows when this pandemic will end," Ceferin said in an interview with Italian media outlet La Repubblica.

"There is a plan A, B and C. We can start in May, in June or the end of June. If we can't do it on any of those three dates then the season probably would be lost.''

"There is also the possibility to finish the season at the start of next season, with next season starting a little late. It would have to work with respect to the players and the signing periods."
