REVEALED: Premier League clubs will not have to use testing and can rely on social distancing to keep 10,000 supporters safe for the final two games of the season, if Prime Minister Boris Johnson gives the go ahead for fans to attend in May

Premier League clubs will not have to use testing or Covid passports to keep up to 10,000 fans safe from coronavirus if they are allowed to return to stadiums for the last two games of the season.

The top flight's chief executive, Richard Masters, has confirmed the league is preparing to allow fans into grounds for the final two rounds of matches.

Under the government's roadmap out of lockdown, up to 10,000 supporters - or one quarter of the stadium capacity if it is lower - will be permitted to attend the games, provided scientists are satisfied it is safe to do so.
