The Argentine Football Association (AFA) is to put an end to the 2019-20 season which has been interrupted since mid-March due to the coronavirus pandemic.
This is according to the AFA president Claudio Tapia who made the declaration on Monday (April 27).
Tapia also added that clubs that will be representing the country in continental competitions will also be announced.
“We are going to end the tournaments so we can designate the teams qualified for continental competitions next year,” Tapia told a local news channel.
The Argentine FA also said there will be no relegation this season or next, due to the disruption caused by the health crisis.
Gimnasia, the club coached by Diego Maradona, will remain in the top division as a result. Relegation is calculated by a complicated system of points taken over a three-year period.
Boca Juniors won the league championship with a 1-0 victory over Gimnasia on the final day of play in early March.
