The league authorities have requested permission for Muslim players to break their fast as the month of Ramadan is regarding to begin.
The Premier League authorities have asked for permission to stop the match so that the fasting players can eat when it is time to break the fast during the match.
Sky Sports has reported that the Premier League officials have inquired with the referees’ association and The Football Association and PGMOL (Professional Game Match Officials Ltd) regarding the possibility of suspending the game.
Many players, including superstars like Mohamed Salah, Riyad Mehrez, N’Golo Kante, are fasting and playing in the Premier League. The Premier League authorities believe that it will be of great help to such players if they are allowed to stop the match as part of breaking the fast in the tournament.
In addition, Premier League officials argue that if they get a chance to stop the match, they can at least find a small solution to the way players break their fast with protein supplements and tablets.
Meanwhile, two years ago in the match between Leicester City and Crystal Palace, the referee allowed time to break the fast.
The match was stopped for Fofanak and Koyataka as part of the discussion with referee Graham Scott by both teams before the match.
After taking such a decision considering the players taking Ramadan fast, there is a huge flow of congratulations to the Premier League officials through the social media.
