Gary Neville has called for the Premier League to delay their proposed Project Restart to July, in the wake of expected player unrest.

The Premier League is looking to restart next month in the wake of Boris Johnson's announcement on Sunday night on the gradual of lifting of lockdown restrictions in England.
