PARIS — French football could resume its season in June with two cup finals, French Football Federation president Noel Le Graet proposed on Friday.

La Graet said that the French Cup final between Paris St Germain and St Etienne could be played on either June 13 or 20, followed by the League Cup final between PSG and Olympique Lyonnais three days later, according to Reuters.

He suggested it would be the appropriately symbolic way to restart professional soccer after its suspension last month because of the COVID-19 pandemic. — SPA
