Liverpool 'RE-OPEN Melwood training ground for three players at a time to train alone... but stars are set 60-minute slots, cannot enter the building and there are no coaches on site'

Liverpool have partially reopened their training base at Melwood to enable players to resume training in isolation.

The Reds voluntarily suspended activity at their West Derby base on March 13 after the Premier League announced the suspension of fixtures due to coronavirus.

Since then, each player has followed a training programme from home, while group sessions have been conducted through video conferencing software.

Liverpool took the decision to make Melwood available because exercising in the city’s parks and running on roadside pavements has become difficult for several players.
