"We are also aware of the importance of finding new ways to entertain fans at this time and we are excited to bring together a strong line-up of players for the ePremier League Invitational tournament.
"With Sky Sports screening the competition live in the UK and many of our international broadcast partners also showing the matches, fans around the world can tune in and enjoy the action.
"We know how popular FIFA20 is with players and I am looking forward to seeing who will be crowned the ePL Invitational champion," said Premier League Chief Executive Richard Masters.
