While the Bundesliga will make its comeback next week and Ligue 1 has been definitively stopped, the Liga and the Premier League are still in the dark.
The Spanish and British championships want to resume, but for the moment, there is total uncertainty, notably due to the test results that have been dropping in the last few hours. This Sunday afternoon, the Spanish football authorities sent an official press release to the media. In it, we learn that only five players have tested positive in La Liga and in the second division. The five players, in “End of illness and asymptomatic”, were placed in solitary confinement. Spanish sources say at least three infected players are Nabil Fekir’s partners at Betis Seville. Despite the news, Javier Tebas is still more determined than ever to return to La Liga sometime in June.
In England, a club crystallized fears with a view to resuming competition. This is Brighton. And for good reason, club vice president Paul Barber said on Sky Sports that three of his players contracted the coronavirus. “It is worrying, but unfortunately, we had a 3rd positive case yesterday despite all the health measures we have taken in recent weeks. There are concerns and I find it normal that all clubs share these concerns. We need to make sure that we do everything we can to keep the protocols safe and secure and to minimize the risk (of spreading the coronavirus) as much as possible. ” explained the leader. A meeting is to be held on Monday between the various players in the Premier League in order to decide on the rest of the championship, which could take place behind closed doors and on neutral ground.
