Serie A showdown talks over season resumption set for May 28

Italian Minister of Sport Vincenzo Spadafora has announced that the future of the 2019-20 Serie A campaign will be determined at a meeting on May 28.

The Italian top flight has been suspended since March due to the coronavirus pandemic, but steps have been taken this month toward the league's return.

Teams began individualised training sessions at their facilities in early May before resuming group training this week after being cleared by Italian Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte.

As the league eyes a potential return by mid-June, decisive talks have now been scheduled between the Italian government, the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) and Serie A.
