The final round of Premier League games scheduled to take place before the start of the World Cup has been ordered to be postponed.
After the matches on the weekend of November 12 and 13, club competitions will be put on hold until after the opening ceremony of the tournament in Qatar on November 20.
A growing number of players are getting serious ailments that could end their dreams of competing for their country in Qatar. Qatar is an international sporting event.
After injuring his hamstring during Chelsea's 2-1 victory against Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League on Wednesday, England left back Ben Chilwell was added to the list of players whose participation in the World Cup is in jeopardy.
Jamie O'Hara, who previously played for Tottenham, stated that it was time to cancel matches that were scheduled before the World Cup so that players may have some time to recuperate before the competition.
Before Chilwell got hurt, players like Reece James, Kyle Walker, and Kalvin Phillips were in a tight fight to be fit for England. Chilwell's injury just made the situation worse.
Diogo Jota and others like him will no longer be available to play for Portugal, while Heung-min Son, a prominent player for South Korea, may be forced to sit this one out due to a fracture that surrounds his left eye.
"You've lost Reece James and you've lost Ben Chilwell, but it's a huge situation for England." According to what O'Hara said on talkSPORT, players are quitting "like flies."
Cancel the remaining games in the Premier League to provide some semblance of a break for the teams involved.
O'Hara suggested that either the Premier League or the players themselves get engaged in the initiative.
O'Hara criticized the Premier League on the grounds that it is always more concerned about the profits and cares very little about the well-being and safety of the players.
Arsenal are still in first place in the Premier League table going into the break for the World Cup, and they are only two points ahead of the current championship holders, Manchester City, who are also favorites to successfully defend their crown this year.
