Premier League clubs still want season to be completed

Premier League clubs still want the season to be completed despite suggestions that some top flight chairman want it voided.

The majority of clubs are understood to be in favour of pressing ahead and the issue will be discussed further at a shareholder's meeting next week, says the Mirror.

The issue is one of several on the agenda at the usual gathering, set to take place next Friday.

The expectation is to get the season renewed as and when it is safe to do so.

Games played behind closed doors will also be discussed although concerns around the need for medical staff for each fixture will also be addressed with NHS staff continuing to face challenging conditions.

All clubs are believed to have left last week's meeting agreed that the 2019/20 should be played to a finish once football is able to.
