The Premier League has confirmed that this weekend’s
fixtures will be postponed “as a mark of respect to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth
II.”
This was announced in an official statement on Friday
morning.
Richard Masters, Premier League Chief Executive, said: “We
and our clubs would like to pay tribute to Her Majesty’s long and unwavering
service to our country.
“As our longest-serving monarch, she has been an inspiration
and leaves behind an incredible legacy following a life of dedication.
“This is a tremendously sad time for not just the nation,
but also for the millions of people around the world who admired her, and we
join together with all those in mourning her passing.”
Further updates regarding Premier League fixtures during the
period of mourning will be provided in due course.
