Eibar players afraid of playing during coronavirus pandemic

Eibar players have put together a statement in which say they are worried about the return to football during the coronavirus pandemic in Spain. 

Cadena SER advanced the statement which will be published in the coming hours. This is what it looks like:

"We love football and nothing makes us happier than being able to get together again and make people happy. Without football we feel empty, how our stands are sadly. We defend a badge that represents thousands of people and nothing will be the same without them. The spectacle loses its essence.

"We're privileged. We enjoy training and playing each minute, that's why we want to play. But before footballers, we are people. And like a big part of society, we're worried about the health situation.

"It's true that thousands of workers have returned to their jobs, with a lot less attention and health measures than us. Many without any basic guarantees. It is not fair and we know it. We are lucky.

"We are afraid to start an activity in which we cannot reach the minimum recommendation of the experts, physical distancing. It unsettles us that, for doing what we like most, we could get infected, infect our families and friends and even contribute to a new outbreak of the pandemic, with the terrible consequences that would have for the population.

"The most important thing should be everyone's health, and it's the moment that this idea comes to the fore with facts and not only with words. Only with this clear premise would it have sense to return to the competition. We want guarantees. We demand responsibility.
