Lalas Abuabakar returns to training with Colorado Rapids after coronavirus break

Ghanaian defender Lalas Abubakar returned to training with Colorado Rapids after MLS clubs were allowed to start outdoor training.

The 25-year old and the rest of his teammates were engaged in individual training as part of measures to control the spread of the Coronavirus.

The Major League Soccer has been on suspension since March 12, following the rapid rise in the number of COVID-19 in the United States.

However, after two months without soccer, MLS clubs have started training ahead of the imminent return of the league.

The Rapids join a list of Major League Soccer teams taking the first small steps toward returning to play.

Sporting Kansas City, Atlanta United, Orlando City and Inter Miami let players onto fields Wednesday for controlled voluntary workouts on the first day permitted by the league.

Abubakar made a permanent switch to the Rapids at the beginning of the campaign after a stellar loan spell from Columbus Crew last season.
