The drive for Premier League games to be played in the USA continues to gather momentum, with American TV giants NBC
The concept of holding Premier League games across the Atlantic has re-emerged in recent weeks, with chief executive Richard Masters admitting that the 'door is ajar' for matches to be played abroad.
However he also noted that it was not currently a topic of discussion, which would appear to have thrown cold water over the notion.
It comes at a time when football is experiencing a huge growth spurt in the USA, with Lionel Messi's arrival at Inter Miami noted as one of the contributing factors, but there is also a great interest in the English game.
