Warriors striker Tino Kadewere’s French Ligue 1 club Olympique Lyonnais (Lyon) will not play in the UEFA Champions League next season.
This came after the French 2019/20 season was called off due to the threat posed by COVID-19, the respiratory disease caused by the SARS-COV-19, the new coronavirus.
French football authorities decided that Paris Saint-Germain will be crowned Ligue 1 Champions, with Lyon missing out on a spot in the Champions League for the first time since 1997.
The placings have been determined on points per game played, and Lyon are seventh.
Kadewere signed for Lyon for $17 million in January and immediately loaned back to his League 2 side Le Havre.
He will join Lyon for next season.
