UEFA has temporarily softened its financial fair play (FFP) rules to help clubs impacted by the economic fall-out of the coronavirus crisis and set October 5 as general transfer deadline across Europe as it wants a harmonised European transfer window ahead of next season’s Europe campaigns.

UEFA are set to complete the Champions League with a "Final Eight" tournament held over 11 days in 2 venues in Lisbon, Portugal. Accordingly, the proposal will be presented to their executive committee for ratification tomorrow.
