The Premier League in England said on Monday that four people have returned positive results in its latest round of COVID-19 tests conducted on players and staff last week.
The league said the individuals who had tested positive for the novel coronavirus would now self-isolate for 10 days.
“The Premier League can today confirm that between Monday, Oct. 26 and Sunday, 1,446 players and club staff were tested for COVID-19,” the league said in a statement.
“Of these, there were four new positive tests.”
A total of 48 people have tested positive for the virus in nine rounds of testing since the new league campaign began in September.
