Barcelona
have already announced that they are planning to welcome their players back to
the Joan Gamper sports city on Wednesday ahead of LaLiga return in June behind
closed doors.
Barcelona
superstar, Lionel Messi, and other Barcelona stars are set to undergo tests for
Coronavirus on Wednesday (today) as they prepare to return to training ahead of
Spain’s LaLiga restart in June.
This is
coming after Spain’s ministry of health gave clubs permission to return to
their training grounds after lockdown rules were relaxed.
After getting
tested, players who do not have coronavirus or symptoms of the disease will
train individually.
“The football
first team will be back at the Ciutat Esportiva on Wednesday for the relevant
medical tests ahead of starting training individually in the coming days,” a
club statement read.
“LaLiga has
given the go-ahead for the tests to be carried out after the club facilities
are inspected on Tuesday. On Wednesday the medicals will be carried out to
guarantee the players’ health.”
“This crisis
has had a profound impact on all of us,” said Javier Tebas, the president of
LaLiga.
“The return
of football is a sign that society is progressing towards the new normal. It
will also bring back an element of life that people in Spain and around the
world know and love.
“People’s
health is paramount, so we have a comprehensive protocol to safeguard the
health of everyone involved as we work to restart La Liga.
“Circumstances
are unprecedented, but we hope to start playing again in June and finish our
2019-20 season this summer.”
Spain’s
president Pedro Sanchez has also welcomed football’s return despite 25,000
deaths and over 250, 000 cases from Coronavirus.
