Already, there have been reports that 18 Premier League clubs have already made it clear that they want the season to be completed so as for a true champions to be emerged.
And according to the report on Givemesport, a club has already proposed that all the 20 clubs be flown to China where the season can be concluded.

There are also reports that the Premier League will lose £762 million in broadcast revenue if the 2019/20 season is not concluded.

Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Rio Ferdinand suggested that the Premier League board should cancel the 2019/20 season because of the threat and spread of coronavirus.
And should the Premier League chiefs agree to do that, then it will be a big blow for Jurgen Klopp and his wards at Liverpool who have been waiting to win the title for the past 30 years.
Coronavirus crisis has been a serious issue which has been affecting all humans on earth in one way or the other as many businesses have gone down.
Rio Ferdinand stated that his opinion about the Premier League season being cancelled has nothing to do with his rivalry with Liverpool when he was playing for Man United.
The 41-year-old Englishman explained that he is only thinking about the safety of the players who are the primary actors in the round leather game.
