Premier League coverage returns to China on Wednesday as clubs drop 'Show of Solidarity for Ukraine'

Premier League television coverage will return to China this evening following last weekend's boycott as the top-flight have dropped their centralised messages of support for Ukraine.

Chinese rights holder's iQiyi pulled their planned live broadcast of last week's games in protest at the Premier League's decision to display the Ukrainian flag on big screens at all stadiums, as well inserting it into the TV coverage, which the Chinese government claimed was a political gesture.

The Premier League's 'Show of Solidarity for Ukraine' will not continue at tonight's four matches however, which may enable them to salvage a TV deal that is worth £120m to the clubs over the next four years.
