We still are in doubt if this season will continue. In the EFL Championship, clubs hope to gain clearance for a 25 May return to regular training, as part of plans to resume the 2019-20 Season.

The restart might start on the 6 June but discussions with other clubs still anticipate a 13 June date, in line with the Premier League. League One and Two clubs will speak on Friday, when the prospect of ending the season seems certain to move closer.

Scrapping the rest of the season in Leagues One and Two is likely to be discussed in another week of key meetings in the Football League.

An EFL Board meeting on Wednesday will be followed by a meeting of all Championship clubs - then another involving the 47 clubs from the bottom two leagues.

It is not certain if the leagues will be formally ended this week as there are a number of issues that will need to be resolved, not least surrounding promotion and relegation, and the EFL is adamant no decision about the rest of the season has been made.
