Aston Villa vs Newcastle United on Friday is looking likely
to be postponed due to a COVID-19 outbreak at the club, according to Sky
Sports.
Newcastle is in discussion with the Premier League over the
potential postponement of the match after their squad was ordered to stay away
from their training ground.
Over the weekend it emerged that three individuals within
the first-team bubble had tested positive for Coronavirus and after further
testing on Sunday, more players also returned positive tests.
Newcastle has been unwilling to disclose the exact numbers
or identities of those affected.
The club’s training ground has been closed since the weekend
and players have not trained since last Thursday.
Another round of testing is due to take place on Wednesday.
