Maybe Ligue 1 was cancelled a little too soon, says Fabregas

TIL Desk Sports/ Monaco midfielder Cesc Fabregas feels the decision to cancel football season in France was taken a bit too soon considering football associations around Europe are looking to restart their respective seasons.

French authorities announced last month that all sporting activities will remain suspended in the country till September as a precautionary measure against the spread of coronavirus. This saw Ligue 1 ending abruptly and Paris-Saint Germain being crowned champions.

Fabregas stated he understands why the decision was taken but also pointed towards other leagues trying to finish their respective seasons. “It was a big decision that was made and I can understand why they took it,’ he told.

“But maybe it was taken a little too soon, considering a lot of the big leagues are still all trying to resume. “Although I completely understand the meaning behind it and it’s better to be safe in all accounts, because the most important is the families and the health security of everyone and support this 100 per cent,” he added.
