Premier League report rising Covid-19 cases amid outbreak at Newcastle United

The club’s home game against West Bromwich Albion is in doubt with the training ground closed and a number of players and members of staff self-isolating.

This follows the postponement of last week’s game against Aston Villa.

It is unclear how many cases there are at the club, though the number is reportedly in double figures.

United’s players were tested again yesterday, and the club hopes to reopen its training ground today.
