The Premier League’s plan to restart on June 17 received a fresh boost Saturday after the latest round of coronavirus tests produced no new positive cases in English football’s top flight.
A total of 1,195 players and club staff were tested in the sixth edition of screening, which took place on Thursday and Friday.
“The Premier League can confirm that on Thursday 4 June and Friday 5 June, 1,195 players and club staff were tested for COVID-19. Of these, zero have tested positive,” the league said in a statement.
Saturday’s announcement means there have been a mere 13 positives from an overall 6,274 tests carried out on Premier League players and club staff.
Testing will continue on a twice-weekly basis as officials look to resume a season that was suspended in March because of the pandemic.
