Manchester City are still in contention in this year's Champions League and face a two-legged tie with Real Madrid in this month's last 16 games.

A European plan is being formed to resume football around July and August, with domestic leagues told Thursday not to abandon competitions yet due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Belgium is at the forefront of a growing number of nations in favour of ending the 2019-20 season straight away and they intend to lobby UEFA at a showdown meeting next Thursday.

European football has been hit hard by coronavirus shutdown and different leagues have separate ideas about resumption amid coronavirus fears.

Germany have announced a date for restart of the season while England, Spain and Italy are in the process of the same.
