British repercussions for a Greek case of coronavirus. Olympiacos president Evangelos Marinakis tested positive for Covid-19. His players faced and eliminated those from Arsenal in the Europa League round of 16 (February 20-27). And several Gunners had met him just after the second leg.
The English club therefore announces that its workforce is confined, since 13 days have passed since the move of Olympiacos to the Emirates Stadium. The British government recommends isolating people who have been in contact with a coronavirus for 14 days.
Gunners stay at home
As a result, Arsenal players are unavailable for the game against Manchester City on Wednesday. And the Premier League decided to postpone this meeting of the 28e day, which had already been postponed due to the English League Cup final.
After facing Portsmouth in the FA Cup (March 2) and West Ham (March 7), the Gunners will stay at home until the end of the 14-day period, as will four members of the English staff who were seated next to the president of the Greek club, before resuming training on Friday. “Everyone at the club wishes Mr. Marinakis a speedy recovery,” Arsenal said in a statement.
