Serie A teams will return to full training next week as they await government approval, MySportDab reports.
Serie A clubs have selected June 13 as the date the league is set to return from coronavirus suspension.
After a videoconference with all 20 clubs on Wednesday, a large majority selected June 13 as the resumption date.

According cowith government decisions and with the medical protocols for the protection of players and all professionals,” a statement from Serie A said.
Serie A has been on hold since March due to the coronavirus pandemic, with Italy one of the countries hardest hit by the virus.
“A few minutes ago I received a letter from the president of the FIGC italian Football Federation Gabriele Gravina, in which he announced that the FIGC had accepted all the comments of the Scientific Technical Committee, readjusting the protocol allowing without other difficulties to resume training from May 18,” Spadafora said.
