Stuart McCall: 'Europa League should be regionalised'

Stuart McCall hopes that the early rounds of the Europa League are regionalised.

Motherwell manager Stuart McCall has insisted that the Europa League should be regionalised as the travel costs outweigh any prize money that might be won.

McCall said that regionalisation could be an option, if only at the early stages of the tournament.

"To be having to charter planes, it's going to cost more than we're going to receive from the ties," McCall told BBC Sport.

"Something that's been put forward is regionalising. Certainly, in the early stages of the Europa League, it makes sense."

Motherwell face Kuban Krasnodar, which means that a return trip to Russia for the away leg next Thursday.
