“Our inaugural ePremier League season had a great response from fans and clubs,” said Richard Masters, Premier League Interim Chief Executive.
“The tournament brought together experienced EA Sports FIFA pros and first-time competitors and gave them the unique opportunity to compete and win for their favourite clubs.
“We are very pleased to be working with our clubs again to build on the momentum from our first ePL season and look forward to welcoming even more fans and FIFA players to the tournament.”
