Euro 2020 has been postponed by one year until 2021 because of the coronavirus pandemic, says the Norwegian FA.

Uefa, European football’s governing body, has been holding an emergency video conference involving all major stakeholders on Tuesday morning.

The Norwegian FA said on Social media it was decided that the tournament will now take place from 11 June to 11 July next year.

BBC claims the decision will be signed off by Uefa executive committee later on Tuesday.

The tournament was due to take place from 12 June-12 July this year at 12 venues across Europe.

The postponement provides a chance for the Premier League that have been suspended to now be completed in June and July.

Uefa’s Nations League and the European Under-21 Championships are also scheduled to take place next summer.

The 2021 Uefa Women’s European Championship is set to take place in England and begins on 7 July, four days before the proposed men’s final.
