The 2020 International Champions Cup–at least on the men's side–won't be happening, the latest athletic event to fall by the wayside amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The announcement from Relevent Sports on Friday could not have come as a surprise, with the European clubs it has made a tradition of bringing to the U.S. and other destinations expected to play on into the summer to complete their domestic seasons. As a result, there would be no time to arrange a preseason set of friendlies for them overseas–and that's presuming that international travel is relaxed enough for it even to be a possibility in the first place.
