Six players in the English Premier League have tested positive for coronavirus after mass testing was conducted for three clubs between Sunday and Monday.
The mass testing is necessary as the suspended league nears a return next month.
The unnamed players or staff who have tested positive from the 748 total tests conducted will now self-isolate for seven days.
Squads are starting non-contact training from Tuesday.
The Premier League has been suspended since 13 March because of the Covid-19 pandemic, with 92 fixtures remaining.
