According to the note released, on the 25th, by the supreme entity of Football in South America: Conmebol which contacted the participants again to carry out the resumption of games as soon as possible.
The current president, Alexandre Domínguez, affirms that the entity's desire is to hold the competitions as soon as possible, emphasizing the health of the athletes and those involved in the sport.
“More than two months ago, because of this coronavirus issue, we made the decision to stop Libertadores and Sul-Americana. And we also made the decision to close the offices and to care for and protect every single life, the health of the people who work here.
Time passed, we went to our homes, we were obedient to receive and accept what our health authorities recommended to us. We played as a local, but we still work from home.
Now we are back at the workshop with a single commitment: to make it possible, as soon as possible, to put the Copa Conmebol Libertadores de América and the Copa Sudamericana playing again.
We are working hard together with all the countries because our only obsession is for the ball to keep rolling. With the order of priorities: health first and then competition.
And I want to leave the message: that we have this commitment and both championships will be played and will be closed (on the field). Take care, because the most important thing is that, when we return, we are all together ”- Official statement from the President of Conmebol.
