COVID-19: EPL clubs to meet Monday over match cancellations
The mounting cases of COVID-19 infections and the resultant cancellation of English Premier League (EPL) matches has forced club sides to meet on Monday.
With 10 games postponed over the past week, including six already from this weekend’s 10-match fixture list, clubs want the chance to discuss the options.
The meeting will focus on other issues as well.
The challenge of re-arranging the games that have already been postponed will be considered.
Next month’s African Cup of Nations and the January World Cup qualifiers have given many club owners grey hairs.
There are speculations that the EPL season may be put on hold.
However, the Premier League authorities say they intend to carry on playing matches – as long as it is safe to do so.
