Chelsea

Chelsea players are self-isolating after Callum Hudson-Odoi tested positive for COVID-19 last Thursday. Apart from Mason Mount, that is, who was seen playing five-a-side with Declan Rice at the weekend - something that earned him a telling off from the club.

Manchester United

United have cancelled first-team training in accordance with the government’s advice.

Newcastle

Newcastle were the first club in the Premier League to ban handshakes and aren’t expected back training until March 30.

Norwich

Norwich have told players to stay away from the training ground for the foreseeable future while they carry out their own individual training plans.
