A new Government decree in Italy has banned training in sporting facilities for professionals until at least April 13 due to the coronavirus lockdown, effectively ending the debate between clubs.
Prime Minister Giovanni Conte confirmed the order in a press conference this evening and added a new point.
There will be no training in a sporting facility, even for professionals, until at least April 13.
It ends the discussion between clubs, the Lega Serie A and the Italian Players’ Association over when training should resume.
Some clubs, above all Lazio and Napoli, are pushing for players to come back to work in small groups, or even to travel to club headquarters for tests.
“The only novelty is regarding training sessions for athletes,” said Conte. “We have banned them to ensure that clubs cannot demand a sporting performance, even if it is just a training session.”
Although the trend of new cases, deaths and people going into intensive care have all dropped significantly over the last few days, there is no easing of the lockdown measures for Easter, which is on April 12.
The social distancing order is extended to April 13, because “if we were to ease up now, all our efforts would have been in vain. Once the statistics are consolidated, we will begin easing the measures. I cannot tell you that will be on April 14, because we are not in any condition to know.
“We will then begin Phase 2, which is living with the virus. Eventually there will be Phase 3, a return to normal life.”
