- Premier League: season could be curtailed by outbreak
The spread of coronavirus means it is likely Premier League matches will be played behind closed doors this month, a club executive said.
Sasha Ryazantsev, the Everton chief financial officer, said banning fans from games in an attempt to slow the spread of the virus would be a decision imposed on clubs. However, with Italian authorities having taken the decision to play Serie A games behind closed doors until April, the possibility of something similar here is increasing.
