La Liga president Javier Tebas has said he hopes the resumed season will start on June 11 with the Seville derby, "one game for all of Spain".

"It is possible that on Thursday, June 11, we could have the first Liga game," Tebas told Movistar Plus television.

"We would like it to be the Seville derby -- Real Betis v Sevilla -- at 2200 (2000 GMT).

"It would be our hope to have a single league game" that day so that the teams "play exclusively for all of Spain, almost as a tribute and to what has happened."
"But what is certain is that it will be the weekend of the 12th."
