English Premier League midweek games will take a pause after this week to allow Muslim players to break their fast mid match.

Liverpool’s Mohd Salah, Chelsea’s N’Golo Kante and West Ham’s Said Benrahma are just some of the stars playing during Ramadan.

The games will take a natural break after sunset.

However, it is not a move replicated in France, with Ligue 1 banning any fasting breaks for players.
