Premier League and EFL are slammed for a 'lack of leadership' in the 'fiasco' over football's financial bailout as Government rip into the 'squabbling at the top of the game' and say they fear clubs will now go out of business

The department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport have slammed the Premier League and EFL for their 'lack of leadership' over football's financial bailout.

The Government have admitted they are 'losing patience' with the constant back-and-forth between the two as fans remain in the dark over a potential return to stadiums following the coronavirus pandemic.

The Premier League had offered a £50million bailout for League One and League Two clubs that was accepted in principle, but the two organisations have still not agreed on the terms of the package – much to the Government’s dismay.
