He told the Financial Times: "I am determined that one day a valid Premier League match will be played in New York. 

"I even have the slightly crazy idea that a match could be started in Tokyo, a few hours later a match in Los Angeles, a few hours later one in Riyadh, etc."

The American television channel NBC has recently also aired the idea of ​​moving Prem matches to American soil. They have even  held meetings with representatives from the Premier League about the possibility.
