Man Utd legend Neville offers solution to conclude season

Manchester United legend and Salford City part-owner Gary Neville is confident the season can still be completed.

Football in the Premier League and the EFL has been suspended until April 30th due to the coronavirus pandemic, with a growing expectation that an extension to that date could be on the cards.

Neville has stepped in with his own ideas though, with the major focus being completing this season when it is safe to do so and, if necessary, reducing the length of next season.

In a post on Twitter, the United great said: "Finish this season in a short timeframe when safe. Condense next season if needed. Open transfer window from May and run it all the way through 20/21 to give clubs agility. Extend player contracts to complete 19/20. Financial packages for clubs in need including non-league."
