Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero has said that players are "scared" about having to return to action during the coronavirus pandemic. Premier League clubs will hold further talks on how the season can resume, branded Project Restart, at their next shareholders' meeting on Friday. The campaign has been suspended since March 13 and while clubs wants to finish the season, Aguero believes players are reluctant. "The majority of players are scared because they have children and families," Aguero told Argentinian TV station El Chiringuito. "I'm scared but I'm with my girlfriend here and I'm not going to be in contact with other people. I'm locked in my house and the only person I could infect is my girlfriend. "They're saying that there are people that have it and don't have any symptoms but still infect you. That's why I am here at home. Maybe I have the illness and I don't even know." "When one person is ill we will think 'oh what's happening here?' I hope a vaccine will be found soon so that this all ends." All games are expected to be held behind closed doors with the possibility some matches will be available on free-to-air TV. Manchester City are second in the table 25 points behind runaway leaders Liverpool, who needed just two wins to clinch the title before the season was halted. Meanwhile, Brighton striker Glenn Murray his criticised some of the proposed protocols around the league's return to action. "Face masks is going to be off-putting; it is not going to be natural. People will be ripping them off in games," the 36-year-old said. "It is quite farcical. "I understand why people are desperate to get football on. It has to be done in a sensible way and in the right time and in a way that is going to keep everyone safe. "There will be ambulances at training and games. Is it fair to take those from the NHS? I don’t know. "It is not just two squads, there is a lot more involved and it puts more people at risk." Bournemouth captain Simon Francis has also expressed concerns about restarting the season. He said: "My head's saying that I would love to see football restart, to play the remaining games and finish the season; my heart is saying we shouldn't be putting football, or economics, before anyone's health and safety." ___________________________________________
