The 2019–20 season was the 87th season of competitive football in Lebanon. [1] Due to political and financial issues in the country, on 21 January 2020, the LFA decided to suspend all football leagues until further notice, and cancelled the three match days that were previously played (the last one being on 17 October 2019). [2] With the COVID-19 pandemic also stopping sporting activities globally, the season was officially cancelled on 28 May 2020. [3]
