Chelsea owner Todd Boehly has suggested the Premier League should have a US-style all star game between North and South clubs.
US tycoon Boehly, co-owner of the LA Dodgers baseball team, says it could raise millions for the football pyramid. Boehly, speaking at the Salt conference in the United States, said: "Ultimately, I hope the Premier League takes a little bit of a lesson out of the American sports teams and really start to think about why don’t we do a tournament with the bottom four teams.
"People are talking about why don’t we have more money for the pyramid? MLB did their all star game this year. They made $200m from a Monday and a Tuesday, you could do a North vs South all-star game from the Premier League to fund the pyramid very easily."
