UEFA sets deadline for league resumption plans

UEFA has given the Premier League and other leagues across Europe until the 25th of May to provide a detailed plan to resume the season amid the coronavirus pandemic.
European Football's governing body has already made it clear that qualification for the Champions League and Europa League next season must be decided on ‘sporting merit’ if seasons can't be completed.
The Premier League has been suspended since the 13th of March but the UK Government want football to get up and running again as soon as possible.
Several clubs have returned to training with restrictions in place.
