LaLiga, on the public in Las Palmas: “It will depend on the health authorities”

Miguel Ángel Ramírez has surprised on the club's radio reporting that the match against Girona on June 13 will be with the public. In principle, everything indicated that the season would end without a single fan in the stands and the most optimistic forecasts would allow the entry of 30% of followers next September. Now, the situation has completely changed and the words of the President of Las Palmas could be made official in the coming days.

LaLiga sources consulted by AS report that “a return protocol is being prepared of stadium fans. “Of course, with nuances:” It must be adapted to each stadium and the percentage of capacity allowed by the competent health authorities, but we want to work on it. “Despite everything, we are already working with the return of the public can take place as soon as possible, even so, it is emphasized that everything happens through government orders and that the protocol will be done in consensus with the CSD. It should be remembered, however, that in Phase 3, the autonomies win competitions.

The message of Health until now was clear: all the matches would be played behind closed doors. “We will comply with everything that the authorities ask us and we will be able to announce next week that the fans will be able to attend the stadium to cheer on their team, “stresses the president on the club's radio, who knows that he needs complete security in order to make his request effective.

30% capacity

However, Ramírez knows the established guidelines and is aware that only access to the 30% of the capacity, which is about 10,000 fans of the Gran Canaria Stadium. If so, the forecast reported by El País last week would be brought forward. In it, there was talk of 30% capacity at the start of 2020-21, 50% in the month of November and already 100% in 2021, as long as there are no sprouts.
