The Premier League will ask fans not to attend matches unless they have been fully vaccinated or can provide evidence of a recent negative Covid test for the rest of the season, despite the Government abandoning plans to introduce Covid passports for mass events.
Clubs will continue to employ Covid marshals at games to carry out spot-checks of supporters' Covid certification, and those without the required credentials may be barred from entering the stadium.
