Some Of The Demands By EPL Clubs Amidst Calls To Complete The Season This Year

English Premiership Clubs are reportedly pushing for the completion of the 2019/20 season this year despite the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.

They are however asking for the number of substitutes to be increased to five from three to avoid injuries and fatigue of players since games will be played within a very short space of time.

For an unknown reason, clubs are also allegedly pushing for the suspension of the Video Assistance Referring (VAR) for the rest of the season although they are willing to have it kept in the long run.

EPL, like other sports leagues around the world, suspended the 2019/20 season following the outbreak of the coronavirus and clubs are pushing to have it completed around July this year.

There are reports saying that the remaining matches, nine at most, will be played behind closed doors to avoid the spread of the virus.
