The Spanish league will be breathing a huge sigh of relief as things will be closer to normal when fans will be allowed back into stadiums for La Liga next season, the government said on Thursday.
Health Minister Carolina Darias made the end of attendance restrictions announcement after a Cabinet meeting that approved new rules that include allowing people to stop wearing masks outdoors.
There are still likely to be some limits on the number of fans by the time the season starts, though, depending on the coronavirus situation in each region.
The Spanish league expects to begin its season with about 70% of capacity at stadiums as opposed to recently where only a limited number of fans had been allowed into first-division soccer games in parts of the country where the pandemic was more under control.
The announcement comes just as some clubs begin promoting their renewal campaigns for season ticket holders.
Needless t o say, the loss of ticket revenue has created a huge financial predicament for most, if not all, clubs.
