It has now been over two months since Chelsea last played a match but, with the Bundesliga having returned, there are encouraging signs that the Premier League could follow suit.
Discussions surrounding Project Restart are set to continue next week, with the aim of playing the remaining 92 Premier League matches behind closed doors from mid-June.
That means there will at least a few more weeks without football for the Blues but it hasn't quite brought an end to the discussions, as transfer rumours continue to circulate.

Chelsea are under pressure to step up their pursuit of Ben Chilwell, after looking set to miss out on another left back target
French Champions Paris Saint Germain have reportedly opened talks with the 27-year-old, who would have been a backup option for Chelsea, had they failed to land Leicester’s Chilwell.
The Foxes are believed to be hoping for around £80million for the England International, while Telles is expected to be a cheaper alternative due to the fact his contract expires in 2021.
Juventus link dismissed
The agent of Chelsea midfielder Jorginho has dismissed suggestions the player is set to join Juventus.
The Italy international had been rumoured to be on the move, linking up with old boss Maurizio Sarri who brought him to Chelsea after the two worked together at Napoli.
Miralem Pjanic had reportedly been offered in part exchange, however, Jorginho’s representative Joao Santos said no discussions have taken place.
“Juve are one of the top clubs in Europe, all players would like an experience there,” he told Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli via The Metro.
“But I didn’t hear from anyone.”
