The Premier League may feel like a world away given that we’re deep in the heart of Euro 2020, but it’s going to come around sooner than you’d think.
And to prove that it’s very much on the way, Premier League 2021/22 fixtures are set to be revealed imminently.

Sky Sports, BT Sport and Amazon Prime Video will all broadcast the new season, though it remains to be seen whether we will return to the days of just several games being shown on TV as opposed to all 10 every week.
