"The LFP's board and its general assembly have decided to suspend the organisation of the League Cup after the 2019-2020 edition," the LFP said in a statement.
"Depending on the market, the LFP retains the right to relaunch the competition in the future."
The LFP had failed to secure a broadcaster for the 2020-2024 period.
The competition was created in 1995 and has been won a record eight times by Paris St Germain.
