Serie A and Other Italian Football Teams Set to Resume Training on Monday.

The president of the Italian Football Federation (FIGC), Gabriele Gravina, has warned against ending the season prematurely, insisting it would kill the sport in the country.

President FIGC
Italian football teams are expected to resume training on Monday following the permission to go-ahead granted by the government.
The government had initially declared that as of May 4 citizens can exercise in parks and athletes involved in individual sport can begin training again as they begin lifting lockdown restrictions.
Team sports were initially required to wait a further two weeks before training centres would open again, but regions in Italy such as Campania, Emilia-Romagna, Lazio and Sardinia have given the go-ahead for athletes to return on May 4.
Centres were supposed to remain closed for two more weeks but the government has given permission for individual practice sessions to resume.
Serie A clubs will now be allowed to return to individual training until May 17, after which group practice are expected to resume.
Sassulo and Roma had already confirmed they will start individual training sessions and medical assessments next week after their regions lifted restrictions.
The Italian top-flight looks likely to resume the 2019-20 campaign after all 20 clubs voted in favour of doing so whenever possible at an emergency meeting on Friday, though it is dependent on government approval.
While Belgium, Netherland and France have all cancelled the rest of the campaign, the leagues in Italy, England, Germany and Spain are exploring the possibility of returning soon.
