La Liga are considering a range of plans to make up for the absence of fans in matches including broadcasting tweet and social media interactions of fans inside the stadium.
The details of the arrangements are outlined by Marca, who cite league chief Javier Tebas (pictured) who insists the organisation are considering a range of innovative measures to combat the absence of supporters.
Tebas said during a videoconference: “Sometimes when we have seen games played behind closed doors, there is an echo and the horrible sight of empty stands.
“We are working on methods against this and there will be an interesting question of virtual advertising and having a stand with messages from Twitter that are shown during the game.”
A league statement from La Liga has congratulated their German counterparts on their plans to return to football this month, with Spanish football authorities hopeful of a return of matches by June.
Squads across La Liga are beginning to return to individual training sessions this week following thousands of coronavirus tests being undertaken.
There will be changes on the pitch too – as outlined by Cadena Cope, the Spanish FA will allow five substitutions per match (up from three) while matchday squads will now be allowed to include up to 23 players (previously 18) and there will be two water breaks per game.

when life gives u lemon, u make lemon juice.. don't complain.. nobody wanted it this way, so we all have to adjust and rally behind the decision makers, this isn't a time to condemn. i like he twitter idea.. whether on giant screen (in the stadia) or on live TV, it will be cool and will adjust.. it will even encourage all to say something nice to them just when they are playing, and they (players) will read and smile and give us their best 😍 👌 👍

That will still be boring. tweeter adds or what ever they plan cannot take away the importance that fans in stadiums play. Football was just suppose to be cancelled like the French have done.. Am a Barca fan and Laliga follower, and i know how borring a game is between Bilbao and Celta. infact, any team other than Barca or Madrid playing is boring enough. now tell them to play in empty stadiums. that will be the most boring thing to watch on tv. and am never going to subject myself to that.
You can hear the players talk

Any team other than Barça or Madrid is boring? Then I guess you don't watch La Liga much I presume. The Basque derby is just as exciting to watch as the El Clasico, the Seville derby too.
