Arsenal’s Europa League clash with PSV Eindhoven on Thursday has been postponed due to a lack of police resources in the wake of the death of Queen Elizabeth II last week.
A major police operation is needed in London this week, with the Queen lying down in state between Wednesday and her funeral on Monday 19 September.

“This is due to severe limitations on police resources and organizational issues related to ongoing programs surrounding the national mourning of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.”
