Two more Watford players are in self-isolation after family members tested positive for the coronavirus, manager Nigel Pearson said on Friday.
The unnamed pair join Watford defender Adrian Mariappa and two staff who went into isolation this week after they tested positive in the English Premier League’s first round of testing.
"That shows the types of complications we’ve got. Today everybody has been tested again — we were tested on Friday morning — and we await further results over the weekend. Pearson has moved his vulnerable father out of his family home following his return to training, and hopes his players will be back before the league’s possible restart in three weeks.
Watford defender Christian Kabasele backed Deeney’s decision not to return to training, after the skipper cited concerns about his five-month-old son who has breathing difficulties, and Office of National Statistics data which shows black people and those from other ethnic minorities suffer disproportionately from COVID-19.
