However wives and girlfriends of the players will be allowed to see the players but not allowed to stay with them.
A close source added that “They can only come after match days when the players are relaxed. The training after match will be light and before the start of strategic work for the next game, that is the time WAGs will be allowed. They can only visit and won’t be allowed to stay with the team”.
