Polish Ekstraklasa set to welcome back fans in June after league returns from coronavirus pandemic

Poland Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki has confirmed that the Ekstraklasa will welcome back fans into stadiums for games - at a limit of 25 per cent capacity - from June 19.

The Polish top flight is set to return this weekend after going on hiatus in March due to the coronavirus pandemic. Though matches will initially be played behind closed doors, Morawiecki announced at a press conference on Friday that supporters will be allowed to return in a limited capacity next month.

“We all need football and sport. This is the important element of our return to the new normality.
