Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has ruled out three key players from his squad that will face Chelsea in the English Premier League on Sunday.
This latest development from the camp of the Citizens comes after City’s fixture against Everton was called off due to several players and staff of the club returning positive tests to COVID-19.
According to the report on Mirror, Pep Guardiola explained that five senior players actually tested positive for Coronavirus adding that he is not allowed to mention their names.
Brazilian star Gabriel Jesus and Kyle Walker are already on isolation after contracting the virus. “Five players are out right now isolated for 10 days.
Some are the first cases, two players and two staff and then three more the second time.
“I think the Premier League will not allow us to say it but you will see who does not travel and you will know exactly who they are.
“You will see the line-ups and three important players not there so you will know exactly but I’m not allowed to tell you.”
