(Reuters) - Manchester United will keep paying their casual staff even if the season's remaining Premier League games are cancelled or played in empty stadiums because of the coronavirus pandemic, the club said on Thursday.

English soccer was suspended until April 30 earlier in the day and governing bodies said the current season could be extended indefinitely.
