AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Some European fans will shun soccer if domestic championships become too predictable, the European Leagues (EPFL) umbrella group said on Monday after a season in which Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Paris St Germain ran away with the title.

The trio wrapped up their championships with several games to spare while Barcelona are all but certain to win La Liga, leaving Italy's Serie A as the only one of Europe's top five national championships with a genuine title race.
