The official website of the Austrian Football Union reported that according to the application of the Austrian Bundesliga, the national championship may be played between the end of June and the end of July.

In the information published on the official website of the organization, it refers to the new dates of the season's end. Earlier, the country's championship was planned to be restored at the end of May. However, at the videoconference of Bundesliga clubs, it was decided to postpone these terms. 

The AFS Presidium granted the Bundesliga's request and agreed that the Austrian championship could be completed between June 30 and July 31. 

It will be recalled that the Austrian national team is one of Ukraine's rivals at Euro 2020, which has already been officially postponed to 2021.

It should be added that the Austrian head coach Franco Foda invited seven players playing in the national championship to the friendly matches against Wales and Turkey in March, which were canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. At this meeting, three performers were to represent LASK, two - "RB Salzburg", one - "Assault" and "Rapid".
