Surely this must be on a voluntary basis between each club and each player? I doubt, although happy to be proven wrong, that each contract has a clause for unilateral (forced) extension in case shit hits the fan.I believe the PFAs across Europe will push the club's into extending contracts until the final game for each club. Players get their contracts extended, clubs keep their players a bit more.
In legal terms, it would be an extension for a specified period and at worst this situation would be considered force majeure and would allow such a deviation in terms.
The only difficulty is reconciling the domestic cups and European cup matches. Not sure how that could be done other than to cancel the domestic cup competitions to make room in the scheduling and give the qualification slot to the league position
