Football matches in Wales are remain behind closed doors after the Welsh Government revealed their latest stance.
Clubs in England will welcome back supporters this weekend, but the Welsh national teams and its clubs will have to continue without fans.
Discussions had taken place between the FAW, the Welsh Government and other sports organisations but they will not be following suit of the UK Government.
Welsh domestic clubs have received funding from the National Lottery which will help clubs during this era of football without spectators.
“The situation will be kept under review,” said a Welsh Government spokesperson to BBC Wales Sport.
“We will continue to make decisions based on the position in Wales with public health the priority.
“The First Minister has just announced a tightening of restrictions, so Wales is in the equivalent of level 3 in Scotland and England, where spectators are not allowed.”
A statement released from Rugby Union side Dragons and EFL outfit Newport County responded to the latest rules by saying: “Both organisations have been in dialogue with Welsh Government representatives, who have confirmed that their stance remains the same and supporters will not be permitted into stadiums across Wales at this time.”
