MADRID: Spain's health ministry is weighing up whether to let fans back into soccer stadiums when the season restarts later in June after a three-month pause due to the new coronavirus pandemic, Health Emergency Coordinator Fernando Simon said on Tuesday.
But second-tier Las Palmas have started a discussion about fans returning after their president Miguel Angel Ramirez said he hoped fans could attend their first match back against Girona. He added that the players and the department for sport do not want supporters at matches until every club is allowed to have them back."The department for sport have agreed this with the players. That decision did not come from the health department as it's not something we considered when evaluating the risks," Simon said.
Spain, one of the countries in Europe worst-affected by the virus, imposed a strict lockdown in March but has been easing restrictions according to progress made in each region.
