PL emergency meeting to take place on Thursday
Tuesday 17 March 2020 10:36, UK
Premier League clubs are expected to extend talks into next week over the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
An emergency meeting will take place on Thursday, as clubs assess the ongoing ramifications, including how to fulfil the remainder of fixtures this season.
The meeting will follow Tuesday's talks involving UEFA and the likely postponement of Euro 2020.
Sky Sports News has been told this week's club conference call is part of ongoing conversations and discussions with clubs.
Premier League games have been suspended until at least 4 April.
Sky Sports News' chief report Bryan Swanson, speaking on The Debate...
"All 20 clubs will come together again on a conference call to debate and discuss the longer-term decisions. Last Friday's meeting was simply the short term. It was simply to agree to an immediate suspension, which went through very quickly.
"The longer-term decision is expected to take place over more than one call. We'll start with Thursday's call but there won't be a decision made then. It's simply too complicated to get through in one emergency call.
"The expectation is that this will go into next week and beyond, but certainly by the end of the week the hope is that football will have a degree of clarity over what could happen in the summer to try to end some of those seasons."
