The Premier League could confirm the restart date for the competition by the end of the week.
The English top flight and the Football League were recently given permission to resume contact training, including tackling in player groups of up to 12 per session.
Premier League sides are expected to hold a meeting on Tuesday regarding any concerns about the latest development.
Sky Sports now report that a return date could officially be agreed this week.

On Wednesday, Premier League sides will agree another meeting on whether a decision on full squad training will be agreed.
Thursday will then be a crucial day as there could be yet another meeting that will include the potential restart date for the competition and also contingency plans on what could happen should they eventually have to void the season.
The one final issue the Premier League would have to resolve is the decision on whether games would be played at neutral venues or at their usual locations as normally planned.
