Mount, Chilwell To Miss Out Euro Fixture Over Covid-19

Following their tight encounter with Billy Gilmour on Friday evening, England has confirmed that Ben Chilwell and Mason Mount will now self-isolate as a precaution.

Gilmour had a positive Covid-19 test on Monday afternoon, which was announced.

The Chelsea duo embraced the Scotland midfielder after the 0-0 draw at Wembley on Friday night, but he may now miss tomorrow’s match against Czech Republic.

Mount and Chilwell’s isolation time will be determined by the results of their respective Covid tests, which both came back negative.

“As a precaution at this time and in consultation with Public Health England, Ben Chilwell and Mason Mount are isolating after interaction with Scotland player Billy Gilmour at Friday’s match,” the statement from England’s Twitter read.

“The pair will be kept away from the rest of the England players and wider support team, pending further discussions with Public Health England.

“The entire squad had lateral flow tests on Monday afternoon and all were again negative, as was the case with Sunday’s UEFA pre-match PCR tests.
