The European club Association (ECA), representing 232 of the football team of the Old world, conducted a study to determine the impact of the pandemic coronavirus on the revenues of the clubs. The conclusions made by the experts of the ECA, is not comforting: the loss of the teams will carry not only this, crumpled because of the epidemic season and the next. With regard to their amount, it is likely to reach €4 billion In the ECA believe that clubs need to get used to the new reality and to prepare neat, but consistent reduction of costs.ECA conducted a study to determine what will be the losses of European clubs by the pandemic coronavirus. The Association tried to simulate the impact of restrictions on the financial situation of the teams, taking a slice consisting of 10 leagues, namely, representatives of the big five — Championships of England, Spain, Italy, Germany and France, as well as Turkey, the Netherlands, Portugal, Scotland and Poland. This approach was supposed to give an idea of the situation in Europe in General, and not just in the rich leagues.The conclusions reached by the authors of the study are not encouraging. 10 of the aforesaid leagues losses amount to €3.6 billion And the loss in the next season, which still has a chance to pass in a mode more similar to regular will be even more than this,— to €2.1 billion versus €1.5 billion In Europe as a whole, ECA estimates the maximum possible loss clubs in the top divisions of €4 billion. However, the accuracy of forecasts of this kind can cause issues because it is unclear what will emerge, the epidemiological situation in Europe in the future.Especially painful it is for popular teams. For example, the leadership of “Barcelona” in early may reported that only in the current season, the club will be missing €50 million from ticket sales. ECA evaluates the total loss of the clubs matchday article (includes the cost of viewers on tickets, food at the stadium, buying Souvenirs, etc.) in the €400 million this season, and €1.1 billion in the next. Assuming of course that he will be entirely without fans in the stands.As a result, the teams will worsen the balance of income and expenses for the maintenance team. Last season it was 59.6% in the current will reach 65,7% and in the following may be of 70.1%. But, I warn you in ECA, in the small leagues and you will see values greater than 100%. In the ECA noted that the coming transfer campaign will give more information about the real state of Affairs in European football. But the organization believes that clubs will in any case need to review the structure of their costs and try to reduce them without compromising the quality of the game. As noted in ECA, is very difficult.Arnold Kabanovka pandemic coronavirus change the face of sports to further tranliterate
