Liverpool and Arsenal among Premier League clubs to donate matchday food to charity after matches were postponed following death of Queen Elizabeth II... and Manchester City to pay casual staff who were due to work this weekend

Premier League clubs have pledged to donate redundant food to charities and good causes after the death of Her Majesty The Queen led to the postponement of this weekend's fixtures.

Matches were due to take place at 10 top-flight grounds across the next three days.

With rising inflation driving supermarket bills upwards amid an ongoing cost of living crisis, there had been concern about the Premier League's late rescheduling decision resulting in perishable food being wasted.

Liverpool were among the Premier League clubs which were due to play at home this weekend

But Fulham, Bournemouth, Liverpool, Southampton, Manchester City, Arsenal, Leicester, West Ham and Crystal Palace, all of which were due to play at home this weekend, will make donations, while Leeds' charitable efforts have been confirmed.
