European Leagues say they won’t allow UEFA competitions at weekends vanguardngr.com vanguardnews

The topic, alongside revenue distribution model for Champions League and Europa League, is set to dominate discussions when the European Leagues umbrella organisation holds a general assembly in Lisbon on Friday.

The European Club Association has said it wants more teams playing more games in European competition. However, the European Leagues are concerned that European football’s governing body UEFA could ultimately give captive places to some bigger clubs and play matches at weekends.“We will always protect our weekends. We will not allow European club competition to be played at weekends,” European Leagues Deputy General Secretary Alberto Colombo told Reuters.

Colombo added that under the current model the clubs earned places in UEFA club competition by finishing at the top of their respective leagues.
