Following Thursday’s meeting regarding ‘Project Restart’, a date has now been agreed for league season to resume, MySportDab reports.

The Premier League season will resume on June 17 with Manchester City’s meeting with Arsenal one of the first matches to be played.

As the Telegraph first reported and MySportDab has been able to confirm, Aston Villa’s home clash with Sheffield United is another that will take place same day.

With both those matches the two games in hand that were left unplayed prior to the coronavirus pandemic halting football.

A full fixture list will then be played on the weekend of June 19 to 21, with the agreement coming after Premier League clubs met on Thursday to continue discussions over ‘Project Restart’.

The Premier League are hoping to have the current campaign wrapped up by August 2.

The FA Cup final then scheduled to take place a week later on the weekend of August 8-9.

The decision was made to temporarily suspend the season back on March 13 after both Arteta and Callum Hudson-Odoi had tested positive for Covid-19.

There was initial hope that the Premier League would be able to get back underway in April.

Although the devastation of the coronavirus pandemic and the uncertainties over the safety and welfare of players, staff and fans lead to an indefinite delay.

The Premier league has since been formulating a plan to resume the 2019-20 season.

Where all but four teams have nine matches left to play with ‘Project Restart’ seeing various meetings and discussions taking place over how best to safely reintroduce the Premier League.

The most recent developments have seen three rounds of coronavirus testing completed.

The latest results, for tests conducted between May 25 and May 26, seeing four positive Covid-19 cases reported.

Players have also been given the green light to resume contact training as the Premier League gets ready to welcome back football in England.

Liverpool remain just two wins away from sealing the Premier League title, while should Villa beat Sheffield United in their game in hand, they will move out of the bottom three.

There is also an intriguing battle to finish in the top four, with Leicester City and Chelsea occupying third and fourth , ahead of Man United who are in fifth.

There has been no announcement of the resumption of the Champions League or Europa League at this stage.

although Lyon president  Jean-Michel Aulas has previously suggested his side’s tie with Juventus had been pencilled in for August 7.

While the majority are seemingly in favour of the Premier League returning there are those that remain uncomfortable with the situation.

The likes of Danny Rose, Sergio Aguero, Antonio Rudiger and Troy Deeney having voiced their concerns over the restart.
