A survey of League of Ireland players from the Professional Footballers Association of Ireland (PFAI) has shown that 87% of them favour a return to play once authorities here insist it is safe to do so.
The Aviva Stadium is ready to hold matches behind closed doors, with a potential mini tournament involving Ireland’s European representatives set for the end of July.
According to the PFAI survey, 88% of players want to see testing in place for all players and 92% are willing to be tested for COVID-19 weekly or biweekly.
