Players travelling to red-list countries would have to follow UK COVID regulations upon their return, ruling them out of club matches.
English Premier League clubs will not release players for international matches played in so-called “red-list” countries next month. The League announced on Tuesday a blanket for the September fixtures, amid frustration that players who travelled to red-list countries would have to follow coronavirus quarantine regulations upon their return, ruling them out of several of their club’s matches. The Egyptian Football Association had said on Monday that Liverpool would not release Mohamed Salah for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Angola and Gabon due to the quarantine rules.More Related News
