The UEFA Referees Committee has announced that Danny Makkelie of the Netherlands will referee the 2020 UEFA Europa League final between Sevilla and Inter Milan, which kicks off at 21:00 CET on Friday at Stadion Köln in Cologne. The 37-year-old has been an international referee since 2008. This season, Makkelie has officiated at seven UEFA Champions League matches, as well as at the UEFA Europa League round of 16 second leg between Bayer Leverkusen and Rangers in Germany. This will be the first UEFA Europa League final that Makkelie has overseen as referee, having been an additional assistant referee at the competition’s 2018 decider between Marseille and Atlético de Madrid. He was also the video assistant referee at last season's UEFA Champions League final between Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool. (Source: UEFA)
