The Premier League has imposed several requirements, such as a ban on ground level entrances and disinfection of fields, for group training to return.
According to a document the BBC has had access to, players will only be allowed to train in groups of five. All sports equipment used during exercises, such as cones, for example, must be properly disinfected after use, in order to prevent the spread of contagion.
In addition, footballers will be tested twice a week, as well as temperature controls before each training session. Footballers are urged to maintain “strict personal hygiene” and not to congregate in common rooms, such as gyms or the nurse.
