Tottenham match called off after serious Covid outbreak at the club

Match off

Tottenham's Europa Conference League Group G decider with Rennes has been postponed following a Covid outbreak in the Spurs camp.

A Spurs statement read on Wednesday evening "Discussions are ongoing with Uefa and we shall provide a further update on this fixture in due course.

"Additionally, following discussions with the Health Security Agency (formerly Public Health England) and DCMS advisers, the Club has been advised to close the First Team area of its Training Centre at this time, in the interests of the health and safety of players and staff.

All other areas of the Training Centre remain operational."

Reports have suggested Tottenham's Premier League trip to Brighton on Sunday is also in serious doubt.
