Burnley’s first team squad will return to training this week for the first time in over two months.
At a special Premier League Shareholders’ meeting on Monday, clubs voted in favour of stage one of the return to training protocols, allowing clubs to commence training under strict guidelines.
The Burnley squad were tested for Covid-19 over the weekend, and providing results indicate that the squad remains free of the virus, the Clarets squad and playing staff are expected to train later this week.
The squad, who last trained on Friday, March 20, have already been briefed to arrive at Barnfield independently, before parking in socially distanced parking bays and working in small groups of five players for no more than 75 minutes.
