Major League Soccer announced on Thursday that the league has lifted the training moratorium implemented on March 12, allowing clubs to return to full first-team sessions.
With Thursday's announcement, clubs may now submit individual plans to return, with those needing to be reviewed and approved by the club’s medical staff and local infectious disease experts before being submitted to MLS for a final review.
The news comes just one day after MLS and the Players Association announced that the two sides had come together to agree to terms of a new Collective Bargaining Agreement, avoiding a lockout while paving the way for a return to play via a much-reported Orlando tournament.
