The Premier League was officially postponed until 3 April 2020 following a number of players and coaches tested positive for the corona virus.

The Premier League made its decision after a shareholders’ meeting was held on Friday (13/3).

The Premier League holds a meeting to determine the fate of the competition. The fate of Liverpool, which is now comfortable at the top of the table, is at the forefront if the Premier League then decides to whiten the competition. If the Premier League takes a similar step with the EFL, then Liverpool can still continue on their way to the first English title in 30 years.

Finally the results of the meeting came out. The Premier League has decided to postpone the entire match until April 4, just like the EFL.

“We pray for Mikel Arteta and Callum Husdon-Odoi (Chelsea midfielder) to get well soon, so will everyone infected with COVID-19. This is an unwanted situation. We continue to work with clubs, governments, the FA and the EFL to ensure health and the welfare of players, staff and supporters, “said Premier League CEO Richard Masters.

This development makes Liverpool still have a chance to continue the steps towards the Premier League trophy. The Red just need two more wins to legally be the best in the universe of Queen Elizabeth football.
