Madrid, May 24: After Spanish prime minister Pedro Sanchez announced sport can be played from the week commencing June 8, La Liga moved a step closer to resumption.
More than two months after the COVID-19 pandemic halted the season in Spain, players have begun training in small groups as they aim to be as ready as possible for the planned reboot next month.
La Liga president Javier Tebas has said the preferred date for games to resume is Friday, June 12 and Sanchez's announcement means that plan has been given the green light from the government.
"Spain has done what it should and now new horizons are opening for everyone," Sanchez said on Saturday (May 23). "The time has come to resume many daily activities. From June 8, La Liga will return to football."
There are 11 rounds of the 2019-20 season remaining, with much to be decided at the top and bottom end of the table.
