Zambia national team stars Patson Daka and Enock Mwepu will commence training with the rest of the RB Salzburg squad after the Austrian government announced that all sporting activities will resume from 1st May.

All the 12 teams will start training though the health minister has directed the teams to train in groups of 6s and to comply with all the safety regulations and guarantee the health of their players with coronavirus tests.

The Austrian Bundesliga which has been suspended since 8th March, is one of the many leagues which have not seen any football action due to the spread of the coronavirus.

The media are reporting that the League could begin even though there are 14,300 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and 393 deaths as of April 15.

The league game could start as early as May and that the reminder of the season will be played behind closed.

RB Salzburg is occupying the second position on the table with 48 points, 5 points behind League leader LASK after 22 games played.

Patson Daka has scored 17 League goals this season and he is only 5 goals shy from the top scorer.

While Mwepu has been a key player for the Die Mozartstädter playing 29 games in all competitions and scoring once before the league was suspended
