Barcelona & PSG cancel training & tell players to stay at home amid coronavirus pandemic

Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain have cancelled all training sessions and instructed players to remain at home as authorities continue to deal with the coronavirus pandemic.

The Blaugrana squad reported for training on Friday but were sent home following a recommendation from the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) regarding containment procedures for Covid-19.

La Liga has already been postponed for two weeks, and next week's round of 16 Champions League ties have all been called off, which included Barcelona vs Napoli and Manchester City vs Real Madrid.
