“This crisis has had a profound impact on all of us,” explained league chief Javier Tebas.
“The return of football is a sign that society is progressing towards the new normal. It will also bring back an element of life that people in Spain and around the world know and love.
“People’s health is paramount, so we have a comprehensive protocol to safeguard the health of everyone involved as we work to restart La Liga.
“Circumstances are unprecedented, but we hope to start playing again in June and finish our 19-20 season this summer.”
However, the situation is less positive in Germany after its FA announced 10 new cases of the virus in the Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga.
Those who have contracted the contagion must now go into self-isolation for 14 days, with a second round of tests lined up later this week.
Hertha Berlin forward Salomon Kalou was also condemned by the German FA after he posted a video clip of him and his teammates flouting rules over hygiene and social distancing.
Clubs in Germany’s top two divisions have been back training individually since April 6.
