According to MilanNews.it this week will be key to determine whether the Serie A season will resume or not. A crucial meeting on Wednesday between Prime Minister Conte, Health Minister Spadafora and the government technical committee will consider the options going forth. A cancellation of the season is not out of the question despite the clubs vote.
Italian Minister of Sport Vincenzo Spadafora has finally bowed to the pressure applied by the clubs and players association to be allowed to train & practice safe distancing in their training centres as of tomorrow. There’s still a medical protocol to agree before Serie A returns

If the government of Italy green lights a resumption of the season the likely dates will be the 14th or 21st of June. A number of teams will return to training this week and group training can resume on the 18th of May.
