London mayor Sadiq Khan is opposed to the idea of the Premier League resuming in the capital next month while the COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause hundreds of deaths in the UK each day, a spokesperson for the mayor's office has said.
The possibility of a restart next month was given a boost when the government said elite sport could return behind closed doors after June 1."Sadiq is extremely keen for the Premier League and professional sport in general to resume," the spokesperson told the Evening Standard https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/sadiq-khan-opposes-premier-league-plan-restart-london-june-a4438206.html.
An official protocol sent to Premier League players and managers outlining conditions for returning to training said pitches, corner flags, cones and goal posts would have to be disinfected after each session.
