Premier League Down Under? Australian city Perth 'willing to host top-flight games as chiefs look for solution to complete 2019-20 season amid coronavirus pandemic'

The Premier League has been offered an alternative way to end the season, by hosting the remaining 92 games in Perth, Australia, according to The Sun.

Current plans under Project Restart could have games held at neutral venues in England, however there have also been calls to hold the rest of the season abroad.

English agent Gary Williams lives in Perth, and has reportedly been in contact with government authorities and Premier League clubs about the idea of holding it in Western Australia.

'I have had discussions with contacts at Premier League clubs and they like the idea,' said Williams.
