Liverpool 'will be awarded Premier League title' says expert
La Liga president Javier Tebas has confirmed the league are in discussions about restarting top-flight football in Spain again as early as next month, suggesting the Premier League could follow a similar decision. Football governing bodies across Europe have taken the decision to suspend all matches due to the coronavirus outbreak.
"UEFA is contemplating two scenarios for European competitions.
"The first one involves league and European competitions being played in parallel: leagues at the weekend and European games in midweek.
"The other scenario is for two blocks. First of all, domestic competitions would be played up until July, then European matches would be played in July or August, depending on when all the leagues can finish."
Manchester United full-back Luke Shaw became the latest Premier League star to say the current season should be scrapped.

Teams in Spain have also suggested the cancel the season altogether, but Tebas insists that isn't even an option at this stage.
"We won't start that debate now as it is sterile and will only generate conflicts of interest, which is what is happening in other countries," he said.
"Just by chance, the people who don't want to continue with competitions are the ones at the bottom and competing to avoid relegation.
"But cancelling the season isn't something we are talking about. We are not considering at all that we are not going to get back to playing matches."
