EXCLUSIVE: Premier League clubs stunned by 'absolutely crazy' decision to keep socially distanced dressing rooms as they are left scrambling to solve logistical nightmare less than three weeks before start of the season

The Premier League is on a collision course with some of its clubs after performing an apparent u-turn over dressing rooms less than three weeks before the start of the new season.

Sides had been thought that it would be business as usual when the campaign kicks off on August 14, with temporary, socially-distanced facilities a thing of the past and original home and away dressing rooms back in use.

However, sources have disclosed that the top flight has now told its clubs that dressing rooms need to again be socially-distanced, which has left many contemplating a return to banqueting suites, bars and cabins on car parks.
