Do not count on Lionel Messi to step up against the resumption of La Liga on June 12. The sixfold Ballon d'Or assumes this risk but calls for taking all the necessary precautions to protect the players in this new departure for football in Spain.
“As soon as you leave your house, the risk of contamination exists, it is everywhere. So in my opinion, you shouldn't think about it too much or you won't want to go anywhere, ”said Messi in an interview with the newspaper Mundo Deportivo on Friday. "But we also understand that it is essential to comply with the protocols and take all possible preventive measures," added Messi.
Five players quarantined
In Spain, players have resumed individual training as part of a strict program, with five players having already been quarantined after a positive coronavirus test. “Returning to training is a first step, but we must not let up on our vigilance. We must continue to take all the necessary precautions and accept the fact that we will have to replay soccer behind closed doors, "said Messi.
