Chinese soccer club Wuhan Zall returned to their hometown late Saturday (April 18) after being unable to return for several months due to the coronavirus.

The club arrived in Malaga, Spain for a training camp in late January just as the virus was forcing Wuhan in lockdown.

The Chinese Super League club went from Spain to Germany before arriving in Shenzhen on March 16 where they spent three weeks in quarantine.

Upon arriving in Wuhan the team took to Chinese social media website Weibo to announce they had returned after 104 days of 'wandering'.

The CSL does not yet have a firm date to begin play but are reportedly looking at late June.
