Sky Sports have revealed the Premier League will hold an emergency meeting to make plans for the remainder of the season.

A senior source at a top club has claimed there is a “75 per cent chance this season will not be complete.”

SunSport exclusively revealed that league bosses are under increasing pressure to axe the entire season as it stands.

Top-flight clubs could also refuse to resume the season as planned due to concerns over their players’ health.

However, reports have claimed that Liverpool are still likely to be handed the league title even if the season is abandoned.

As it stands, Jurgen Klopp’s side are just two wins away from securing their first league trophy in 30 years.

A huge 75 per cent of SunSport readers have demanded that the Merseyside giants are awarded the title. 

The Premier League were forced to suspend the season after it was confirmed that Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta tested positive for coronavirus.

Chelsea star Callum Hudson-Odoi also tested positive after he was sent home from training for showing minor cold-like symptons.

SunSport also revealed how Man City star Benjamin Mendy has been tested after a close family member fell ill at his home.
