Premier League chief executive Richard Scudamore has revealed that considerations have been made with regards to adding a winter break to the English football schedule.
                                                            Scudamore says that the top flight, the Football League and the Football Association have "tried" to work out a potential solution but continue to find it difficult to rearrange the fixture list to accommodate a rest period that, it has been argued, would benefit the England national team at major tournaments.
                                                            He insisted that the Premier League has no intention of reducing its number of clubs and explained that the Football League would be reluctant to give up the League Cup in order to ease the amount of games in a season.
