(Reuters) - Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp has said resuming contact training has made a "massive difference" for the Premier League leaders as they step up preparations for the restart of the season on June 17 following the COVID-19 disruption.

The league was suspended on March 13 due to the pandemic, with teams returning to training in small groups before voting last week to return to contact training.
