Report: Decision made on Preston v Liverpool friendly after ‘constant dialogue’ between clubs

A decision has reportedly been made as to whether the pre-season friendly between Preston and Liverpool will go ahead on Sunday as scheduled.

The fixture was initially confirmed several weeks ago and is due to be the Reds’ first match since the end of their triumphant Premier League campaign.

However, following the tragic death of Diogo Jota last week, the Lancashire club have given LFC the scope to decide whether or not they wish to play the fixture as planned and will respect whatever choice is made.
