Former Leeds United defender on the ongoing waiting game as players await news of restart

The Premier League and EFL campaigns remain suspended in the country's fight against COVID-19 which has the nation on lockdown until at least May 7 with strict social distancing measures.

'Project Restart’ is well under way and the Government is backing a potential June resumption, but there is nothing concrete ahead of Friday’s Premier League stakeholders’ meeting.

"Obviously you see the news on TV, or you’ve got the Daily Mail app on your phone or wherever,” said Taylor.

“As for the important things, you read a lot of stories in the media and on the news, but I think the most important things you’re going to hear from the club, really, about when we’re going to be back.

“It’s them who are going to know the most, they’re going to know more than anyone else.

“So we’re just waiting to hear from them, really. There’s been no exact date set on training or matches yet, so it’s just a waiting game, really.

“Obviously, there’s a lot more important things going on in the world at the minute.

"It’s strange, really. It just feels like it has been forever now. It’s probably only been about six weeks, but it just feels like it has been ages.

“It’s just about getting routine, really. Just trying to crack on and just try and do stuff, and try fill your day, keep occupied.

“Obviously it was strange at the start, took some getting used to, but now sort of got my head around it.

“We’re getting a lot of stuff sent through from the sport science at the club and just trying to stay fit. Then the rest of the day, just trying to fill your time.

“It’s been really hard (to keep focused), to be fair, because there’s no real objective at the minute.

“There’s no timescale, or there’s no ‘you’re going to be back here’ and ‘you’re going to be playing then’.

“It’s hard to stay motivated and stay driven because at the minute there’s no end goal, there’s no date.

“It is hard, but you’ve just got to stay fit and then just be ready for when called upon and hopefully it’s not too far away.”
