FIFA President, Gianni Infantino says restarting football too early would be "irresponsible".

Most domestic leagues around the world are on hold because of the coronavirus pandemic while major tournaments such as Euro 2020 and the Copa America have been postponed for one year.

Infantino says no match, no competition, no league is worth risking a single human life.

He adds it is better to wait a little bit longer than to take risks.
