LONDON: English football's major stakeholders will meet on Friday to discuss their options to rescue a season derailed by the coronavirus outbreak.
That could mean players and coaches being quarantined away from their families in World Cup-style camps to avoid infection, with stadiums, hotels and training facilities undergoing a deep clean. Instead of rushing back to action, waiting until the virus is completely under control before play resumes is the preferred strategy in this scenario.
Tottenham striker Harry Kane believes the campaign should be cancelled if it cannot be finished by the end of June. Senior figures in English club football believe there is"no place for sport at the moment", according to a recent report in the Athletic. Liverpool need only two more wins to confirm their first league title since 1990 and hold a 25-point lead over Manchester City.
