Charlie Taylor is ready to ramp up preparations for the return of the Premier League as he welcomes a move towards full training.
After more than a week of non-contact training built around fitness work in small ‘pods’ of players on separate pitches, clubs have now been given the all-clear to adopt stage two of the league’s ‘Return To Training Protocol’.
The implementation of the policy, following talks with government officials, players, management and representative bodies, means squads will now be able to train as a group and engage in tackling.
And with the Premier League moving towards setting a date for a resumption of the fixture list, Taylor sees the latest development as a key phase towards playing again.
