The article also added that “Premier League footballers will be putting their EA SPORTS FIFA 20 skills to the test as they go head to head, representing their clubs in a knockout tournament from the comfort of their own homes to find out who competes in the final, which will feature in a live show on Sky Sports on Saturday 25 April. The prize fund is being donated to the #PlayersTogether initiative, which was created by Premier League players as a collective way of generating funds for the National Health Service and distributing them where they are needed most.”

What do we think?

It’s great to see Premier League footballers coming together to have a bit of fun and raise money for the NHS at the same time.
