    Up to 60 English lower league football clubs could go out of business if the sport fails to plan for the impact of COVID-19 beyond the current season

    English professional football has been suspended since March.

    Championship (second tier) clubs are due to return to training in small groups tonight with hopes of completing the season behind closed doors.
