Following a meeting of Shareholders today, it was
unanimously decided to suspend the Premier League with the intention of
returning on 4 April, subject to medical advice and conditions at the time.
Premier League Chief Executive Richard Masters said:
"Above all, we wish Mikel Arteta and Callum Hudson-Odoi speedy recoveries,
and everyone else affected by COVID-19.
"In this unprecedented situation, we are working
closely with our clubs, Government, The FA and EFL and can reassure everyone
the health and welfare of players, staff and supporters are our priority."
Despite the challenges, it is the Premier League's aim to
reschedule the displaced fixtures, including those played by Academy sides,
when it is safe to do so.
