The Premier League have been notified by Manchester United and it could mean their game on Tuesday against Brentford will be a doubt.

It is understood the whole group who travelled to Norwich for their 1-0 win on Saturday have tested negative for Covid19.

A small number of positive lateral flow tests were reported among players and staff, with those individuals sent home before training got underway on Sunday.

Other players trained outdoors with training adjusted to individual and non-contact sessions.

Meanwhile defender Lindelof came off mid-way into their match with Norwich as he pointed to his chest, complaining that he was struggling to breathe.

The Sweden captain was replaced on 74 minutes, just seconds before Cristiano Ronaldo netted our winner, after being unable to catch his breath.

Manager Ralf Ragnick said”He doesn’t remember how it happened.

“I suppose he had a collision with another player and couldn’t breathe. He had problems to breathe and his heart-rate was higher than normal so we had to replace him.

“We’ve had him checked and had some examinations done by the doctor,” added Rangnick. “And, so far, everything seems to be okay but he still seems a little bit shocked. Hopefully he will be fit to play the game on Tuesday against Brentford.”
