Spanish Football Association (Liga) president Javier Tepas has played down players' concerns about returning to training amid the Coruna virus outbreak.
The Spanish media quoted Tepas' statements on Wednesday saying that "going to the pharmacy is more dangerous than going to training."
In response to a statement issued by the technical staff and Eibar players the previous day, Tepas said he understood the concerns, but added, "We are taking many precautions to resume the league very safely."
The League has developed four stages to resume the competition, which are subject to examination, training alone, training in small groups, and group training, the purpose of which is to resume the season on the 13th of next month.
German news agency DPA learned that the association expects that the tests will result in 30 cases of infection with the Corona virus, but will not change the return plan.
Tests are scheduled for Barcelona players on Wednesday, and Atletico Madrid plans to have its players undergo tests today as well, while Real Madrid started the process on Tuesday.
"We are afraid of starting an activity in which we cannot fulfill the first advice of all doctors, which is physical distance," Ebar statement said.
"We are concerned about HIV infection, transmitting the infection to our families and friends and contributing to a new outbreak," he added.
In an effort to make the training environment safe for players as much as possible, the association has sent a 24-page protocol.
The report identifies the best club training and informs them of the obligation to conduct a three-player examination before resuming the season.
