Borussia Dortmund will return to training on Monday amid the coronavirus outbreak but will only allow their players to train in twos. 

It is unclear when the Bundesliga and other major football league around the world will return due to the COVID-19 virus pandemic. International competitions such as EURO 2020 and Copa America have already been pushed back by one year. 

Whilst the re-scheduling has been on everyone’s lips, Dortmund have been carefully planning their return to the training in order to keep their squad match fit.

Despite there being risk involved, midfielder Emre Can is looking forward to getting back out on the pitch.

‘It’s important that we go back to the field, it doesn’t get boring,’ he told Sport1.

Dortmund were enjoying a successful season until the Bundesliga was suspended due to the coronavirus. 

They were four points behind league leaders Bayern Munich but Can admitted it will not be easy if and when the season does resume. 

‘It will be very, very difficult. We still have direct duels with Bayern and Leipzig,’ he added.

Dortmund have been one of the German clubs to make a sizeable donation to help fight the virus that is causing deaths all over the world. 

Can believes that footballers have a responsibility to the public as they ‘earn a lot of money’ that can help fight the virus.

‘It was very quick for us in the team,’ he said. ‘We footballers have a responsibility, we earn a lot of money and want to give something back.’ 

‘We have a good squad, it won’t be easy. But I think yes, that it is still possible.’
