Link Removed - The Premier League has confirmed that the upcoming 2021/2022 season will start on August 14 with the competition scheduled to end on May 22, 2022 as per tradition.
In the Premier League performance for the 2020/2021 season, the start of the league season was somewhat delayed and only started on September 12 due to delays caused by the corona virus pandemic, which made the 2019/2020 season end later.
Now the Premier League organizers are optimistic that the coronavirus pandemic will soon be brought under control and that means they will run the league according to the original schedule they used to do in the seasons before the health crisis.
That means footballers who represent their countries at Euro 2020 this summer will have at least a month to recuperate before the start of next season, especially for those who will play until the final game of the tournament.
The beginning of next season is also likely to see the return of the fans to the stadium with previous news that for the last two or one week of the 2020/2021 season, fans will begin to be allowed to return to the stadium and support their favorite team.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson has also announced plans to lift all lockdown measures by June 21 and that will allow football fans to flock back to the stadium and players will be able to witness the spectator stands filled with fans and rivals.
Talks are also ongoing to welcome some fans back to next month's Carabao Cup final. As many as 8,000 fans are expected to be allowed entry for the summit match between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City on April 25.
