Guardiola among 21 City staff isolating after mass outbreak

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has tested positive for Covid-19 in a mass outbreak of the virus at the Premier League champions.

A total of 21 first-team players and staff are isolating ahead of tonight’s FA Cup third-round tie at League Two Swindon Town, although City are eager for the game to go ahead.

City have not revealed how many of the 21 have actually tested positive, but seven members of the first-team squad are in isolation in addition to 14 staff.

Guardiola confirmed last weekend that Phil Foden and Oleksandr Zinchenko had tested positive and they are now isolating. No one in isolation will be available tonight. (Independent)
