Ikay Gundogan Tests Positive For COVID-19

German International, Ikay Gundogan is the latest player at Premier League giants Manchester City to test positive for Coronavirus.

The Manchester City midfielder’s positive test for Covid-19 has further complicated Pep Guardiola’s team selection ahead of their Premier League opener against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The 29-year-old is observing a 10-day self-isolation period, the Premier League club confirmed.

As a result, the Germany international will miss City’s opening league game of the season against Wolves on Monday (20:15 BST).

Pep Guardiola’s side are also due to play Bournemouth in the Carabao Cup on Thursday and Leicester City in the Premier League on Sunday.
