A statement from the premier league read: "Premier League shareholders today agreed to start the 2020-21 Premier League season on September 12, 2020.

"The final match round of the campaign will take place on May 23, 2021. The Premier League will continue to consult the FA and EFL regarding the scheduling of all domestic competitions."

The English Football League season will also begin on the same weekend, it was later confirmed.

The EFL regular season will conclude on May 8 and 9, the league said, with the play-off to follow at the end of the month.
