The Premier League will begin its next season on August 6, 2022.
It will thereafter be played until November 12-13, when players will report to their international squads.
The Premier League will resume on Boxing Day, eight days after the World Cup final, which takes place on Sunday, December 18th.
The last round of fixtures will take place on May 28, 2023, with all games being played simultaneously, as is customary.
