Premier League chief executive Richard Masters says he has not lost hope that fans could be back before the end of the season. Masters said: “(The Super League) would affect domestic football across Europe, including the Premier League. We want to protect weekends when domestic football is played. For the foreseeable future the Premier League is a 20-club competition.”Masters also addressed the increasing problem of Premier League footballers being subjected to online abuse on social media. The Premier League has invested in that and it is being used more and more unfortunately and we have committed more resource to it.”
