Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallana has spoken about being in self-isolation and expressed his confidence that football will be 'back with a bang' in the future.
The Premier League is currently suspended until the end of April at the earliest and there is a growing expectation that the restrictions will be extended.
Like fans across the country, footballers are also in isolation and Lallana has admitted he is enjoying being at home with his two children.
He told BT Sport: “I’ve just been chasing after the two kids really.
"I’ve got a session on the trampoline after this phone call, so it’s good.
"It took me a couple of days to get used to being at home all day but now I’m used to it, I’m quite enjoying it actually.
“We’ve got to prioritise our health in the country and the world at the moment.
"I think it’s just given everyone a chance to have a bit of time to themselves, do a bit of thinking and it gives you a bit of perspective really on life.
“So there will be some positives you can take out of it.
"It’s very important that everyone stays safe for the foreseeable future and focuses on what really matters and that’s obviously stopping the virus from spreading.
“I’m sure when the time is right, and if everyone listens to what the government has said, then football will be back with a bang.
"Whatever route they decide to take, I’m sure it will be an exciting one like it always is.”
