Despite being one of the worst hit by the coronavirus pandemic, with over 234,000 cases and deaths in excess of 28,000, Spain has gradually been relaxing its lockdown, with football in the country set to take center stage again.
Laliga Chief, Javier Tebas, had earlier revealed he hoped the league to start by June 12; with the latest development and approval, the first game since the league was suspended on March 23 is expected to be played on Friday, 12 June.
Laliga teams have been training individually and in groups for two weeks now, and will be expected to be in shape to restart the league behind closed doors, just like their Bundesliga counterparts.
Barcelona are top of the Laliga log table, closely followed by Zinedine Zidane’s Real Madrid, who will be welcoming key players– who were injured, — Eden Hazard and Marco Asensio back to team.
