The English Premier League looks set to resume on June 17, more than three months after it was forced into hiatus by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Clubs agreed on the date at a shareholders’ meeting on Thursday, although the Government must still give the green light to the competition resuming behind closed doors as the country continues along with its road map to recovery amid the coronavirus pandemic.

All 92 matches remaining in the 2019-20 season are set to be televised by the league's broadcast partners, including the BBC, which means the corporation televising a live Premier League match for the first time since the competition’s foundation in 1992.
