The Premier League has taken the first steps towards allowing fans into matches. As clubs rubber-stamped Project Restart and now prepare for next week’s opening round of fixtures behind closed doors, official discussions over the return of spectators are already under way.
Premier League officials, along with executives from other major sports, have met with Government and medical representatives to start exploring the feasibility of letting supporters back into grounds.
La Liga president Javier Tebas said he even hopes that stadiums will be ’10 or 15 percent’ occupied by the end of the Spanish season.
Considering the UK is behind Spain in the fight against the pandemic, that might not be a realistic target for the Premier League.
