Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) chief executive, Gordon Taylor, has said the Premier League is considering playing halves less than 45 minutes long when football returns from the COVID-19 break.
Following a video conference involving all 20 Premier League clubs last week, the determination to complete the season, which has been suspended since March 13, was re-stated by the league.
The season is likely be concluded behind closed doors at neutral venues and Taylor has suggested that league matches could be shortened.
“I’m talking about protocol that’s coming out, I’m talking about the future,” he told BBC Radio 4.
“We don’t know the future, what we do know is what propositions have been put forward and ideas.
“More subs, games possibly not being full 45 minutes each way, neutral stadiums, there’s lots of things put forward.
“We’re trying to wait to see what proposals are and have the courtesy to let the managers and coaches and players assimilate all those and come to a considered view.”
