Inter and Roma have, according to Il Messaggero, rejected a suggestion from UEFA to eliminate the Italians automatically from the Europa League.
UEFA has allegedly asked Roma and Inter to pull out of the Europa League for the competition to continue as normal, according to the Roma based newspaper.
The newspaper writes that the UEFA President Aleksander Ceferin hopes to continue their competitions and help Euro 2020 to go as planned this summer, by asking the Italian teams to give up their spot in the last 16 of the Europa League.
The Spanish government decided to stop the traffic between Spain and Italy, leading to problems for both Roma and Inter, respectively scheduled to play Sevilla and Getafe in the round of 16 in the tournament.
Juventus are in quarantine after defender Daniele Rugani tested positive for COVID-19, known as the Coronavirus, and the return leg against Olympique Lyonnais in the Champions League is at risk.
Il Messaggero writes that UEFA has asked both Inter and Roma to exclude themselves from the competition but reports that the request was rejected immediately.
The newspaper writes that they were later reassured by UEFA that they would not be excluded from the Europa League, given that the host country must take the blame as the Giallorossi were ready to travel to Seville.

They need to Eliminate them because now Italy is the 2nd most Infected Country, so the Teams may contain some Infected Players who may infect others. I am with UEFA in this Decision

oh my God...there goes my respect for your site! How can you possibly publish such rubbish? The enormity of the consequences of creating such a precedent tells me you are a sensationalistic medium and that you do not possess the required integrity to occupy such high exposure. The process of verification must not mean anything to you and by default you are irresponsible.

UEFA is incompetent and they need to understand that this pandemic has no control for now... suspend the competitions for now... move euro 20 to Euro 21
