Liverpool chairman ‘determined’ to see Premier League

Tom Werner wants to see matches played around worldPotential rule change could allow fixtures abroad

The Liverpool chairman Tom Werner says he is “determined” to see a Premier League match played in New York and wants fixtures moved to different locations around the world.

The concept of having domestic games played abroad is a contentious one and there are currently no plans to enact such an idea. Fifa, however, will launch a working group to make recommendations on the matter, taking it one step closer to realisation.
