EPL bosses to address PSL

English Premier League chairman Sir Dave Richards and Bolton chairman Phil Gartside have been invited to address the Premier Soccer League over future trends in football.

PSL chairman Dr Irvin Khoza invited the duo to attend a club summit in Johannesburg from January 18-20 in a bid to further educate South Africa’s top footballing officials.

Richards is set to lead a seminar on the future of global football and the implications for South African clubs, while Trotters chief Gartside will deal with club licensing as well as offer an insight into the running of a Premier League outfit.

The PSL have also invited newly promoted English top-flight team Norwich to address the domestic clubs in regard to new media and social opportunities in their respective geographical areas.
