The Friuli club are in the race for promotion in what is their first ever Serie B campaign, but during the lockdown, their President tested positive for COVID-19.

“I had to spend a month in isolation, but I was fortunate too, as I managed to do it all at home,” Lovisa told Radio Sportiva.

The Friuli club are in the race for promotion in what is their first ever Serie B campaign, but during the lockdown, their President tested positive for COVID-19.

“I had to spend a month in isolation, but I was fortunate too, as I managed to do it all at home,” Lovisa told Radio Sportiva.

Several clubs are pushing to terminate the season early, including Brescia, whose President Massimo Cellino just tested positive.

“I think football should resume, because we must learn to live with this virus,” continued the Pordenone chief.

“Obviously, we need to be very careful and ensure safety, but in our own small way, we are already prepared to get back to training by following the protocol drawn up by the Federation.

“I understand it might be difficult in clubs with some financial difficulties, but everyone has to deal with the situation. The verdict must be confirmed on the pitch, so we need to get back out there and complete the campaign.”
