Premier League clubs are involved in talks with the UK government regarding the return of football.

The league is hoping they can start the resumption of matches in June, per the Mirror.

The government is set to agree to the holding of games, provided it is done with very strict guidelines.

The deal should include keeping the players in a sterile environment, ensuring games are behind closed doors, and extending the games that are shown on television.

Clubs and the government want to avoid a situation where fans are congregating at bars or outside stadiums when games are taking place.

A deal is not concluded, but it looks likely to be finalised in the coming days.
