The J League said on its website on the 19th, "After today's board meeting, we decided to change the season (operation) method from the 2026-2027 season."
He then explained, "We decided that we should carry out a 'season transition' to realize the vision of the J League, and the board made a decision."
As a result, the J League will operate 2026-2027 seasons instead of 2026 seasons. The season will begin in August 2026 and end in May 2027.
The period from the second week of December to the third week of February is designated as a winter break, so the game will not be held.
The J-League added that it will further discuss various controversies caused by the season transition.
Earlier, local media reported on the 15th that 52 clubs were in favor of the change of the Chunchun system as a result of voting at an executive committee attended by representatives of 60 J-League clubs.
Japanese soccer has been trying to change the autumn system in line with the "global standard."
This is because Europe, the center of global soccer, is operated as a chunchun system, and the leagues of Middle Eastern countries, which have grown their power to the mainstream of the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), are also a chunchun system.
AFC has been conducting the Spring Festival since the 2023-2024 season until the Champions League (ACL), which was held as the Spring Festival.
The FIFA Club World Cup, which will expand to 32 teams, will also be held from June to July in time for the autumn festival.
In addition, the J-League expects that the threshold for its players to move to Europe will be lowered, which will help improve the Japanese national team's performance in the long term. 토토사이트
Meanwhile, the K-League is aware of the situation in the J-League, but it is keeping distance from the transition to the autumn system.
The Korea Professional Football Federation believes that there is no immediate plan for implementation considering various factors such as the season, grass environment, and spectator profits in Korea.
