LONDON: Bournemouth goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale has tested positive for COVID-19 in the second round of testing.
He returning a negative result in the first batch of tests three days earlier.
“My test last Monday before we started training was negative,” Ramsdale told the Sun. “So this last week, I’ve done the usual things like going to the supermarket and going to the petrol station to fill my car up.”
Ramsdale had returned to training when the Premier League allowed clubs to conduct sessions in small groups with players adhering to social distancing guidelines.
The 22-year-old said he did not have any symptoms and that he was now self-isolating.
“Now I have seven days’ isolation at home… It’s not ideal, obviously, with training.
“The club have been fantastic. The players and especially the staff have been saying if we need anything to just ask. Things like shopping, they’ll leave it at the door.”
