The head of the Itaugua entity spoke this Monday with Fútbol a lo Grande on Radio Monumental and confirmed that the board is "up to date with the squad" in salary payments.

In recent days, Rogelio Delgado, president of the Paraguay Footballers Association (FAP), stated that the guild maintains the position of not restarting the championship if the clubs do not fulfill their obligations to the players.

KEY MATCH. At another time, Monges was asked about the sports situation. In this regard, he regretted the initial defeats and sees the match against Sol as crucial in the competition restart.

"Unfortunately, we couldn't start the first six games well, we are aware that we need to improve the situation and the team's performance. We are one game away from breathing better. The 9th match, against Sol d'América, is key for us," he said.

REACTIVATION. The medical committee of the Paraguayan Football Association will begin the second inspection of the clubs' facilities on Tuesday to verify compliance with the suggestions given during the first visit as part of Phase 0 of the health protocol.

According to the protocol, the tests will be conducted on June 5, 6, and 7, and the players will begin home quarantine. Individual training is scheduled to begin on the 10th, followed by six sessions in reduced groups. From the 22nd, they will be able to train collectively.

If everything goes as planned, the Apertura tournament will return on July 17 behind closed doors, following this progressive schedule for the teams and under strict measures that will continue to be supervised by health authorities.

The coronavirus, which has caused 11 deaths and 995 cases in Paraguay to date, halted the eighth round on March 13, with Libertad leading the table with 19 points, ahead of Olimpia, the champion of the last four tournaments, with 4 points less.
