League Two Bradford have revealed they have been told of the growing likelihood that supporters will not be able to attend their games until 2021.

The EFL is in discussions over how to end the current season, which has been halted by the coronavirus pandemic, but it is widely accepted that any games will be played behind closed doors.

And now the Bantams have suggested that will extend to next season, whenever that may be.

"City officials have recently been informed of the ever-growing possibility of supporters being unable to attend matches until 2021," a club statement read.

"And it is now highly likely that next season will commence behind closed doors." 

Bradford had an average attendance of 16,130 last season, much lower than Premier League clubs who are likely to be hit with the same restrictions, should they come to pass.
