Euro 2020 postponed until 2021: Norway FA

Soccer's 2020 European Championship has been postponed for a year as the world fights to contain the outbreak of the coronavirus, according to reports.

UEFA, which is yet to confirm the decision, has proposed that the June 12-July 12 tournament to be held in 12 countries be put back to June 11-July 11 next year to give the suspended domestic leagues time to be completed.

Norwegian FA Tweeted the decision and Germany's Bild Newspaper also reported the postponement on Monday.

The proposal was agreed during a video conference with all 55 of its affiliated national football federations and representatives of clubs, leagues and players.

The decision will go before UEFA's Executive Committee for final sign-off later on Tuesday.
