LaLiga clubs are reported to be back in training in small groups from Monday onwards as they move into the third phase of a protocol for resuming activity after the coronavirus.
According to Reuters, the source said the league’s organising body La Liga had informed clubs they could start training in groups of up to 10 players from May 18 onwards following an order issued by the government’s department for health on Saturday which modified guidelines for elite athletes.
Players from all top-flight and second division clubs had returned to their training grounds earlier this month for the first time since all organised soccer in Spain was provisionally suspended in early March due to the pandemic but were only able to conduct individual sessions.
They will move into the penultimate phase of the return to activity on Monday, while full training, phase four, will be allowed once regions enter the second phase of the national state of emergency.
