Theory about China: has infrastructure/ahead of Europe on health curve. But so many arguments against. Different clubs chief exec says: “It is a crazy idea and it will get rejected. Move the PL to a different part of the world and we’d get slaughtered.” https://theathletic.com/1719459/2020/04/02/premier-league-coronavirus-china-season/?source=shared-article">https://theathletic.com/1719459/2...
There clearly won’t be collective agreement to go to China but it speaks for the growing sense of desperation to do something, anything, ASAP, that a club could even conceive of bigging up the idea. The French TV rights situation has escalated fear.
