Sky Sports and BT Sport have been warned they will be barred from interview access by the Premier League if they ask any questions about when the current season will resume.
All top-flight fixtures are on hold indefinitely amid the coronavirus crisis, with league chiefs still unsure if or when the campaign will be completed.
Premier League clubs have agreed to help broadcasters through the lull in football action by providing managers and players for regular interviews.
But broadcasters are not allowed to ask questions relating to the season's prospective return date, as specified in guidelines from the Premier League.
