"For us footballers, it's a new situation," said Dijon defender Fouad Chafik. "We're going to training, not knowing when we're going to play again. That's what's a bit destabilising".

Still free to organise training, some clubs have opted for continuity, with a few modifications, while others are scrapping their usual training routine.

Nice have chosen to continue training, though reduced to three sessions a week and with some adjustments.

The idea will be "to try to avoid contact on the pitch" and do "maybe a little more running", said coach Patrick Vieira.

Christian Gourcuff has no plans to change his system at Nantes, saying the coming weeks will serve as a "mini pre-season".
