Liverpool record ANOTHER positive coronavirus case as Xherdan Shaqiri is forced to self-isolate

Xherdan Shaqiri has become the third Liverpool player to test positive for the coronavirus in the space of a week.

It is another blow for the Premier League champions who confirmed last week that both Sadio Mane and Thiago both tested positive for Covid, with all three players having to self-isolate as a result.

Three positive tests from the same team has led to fears of the virus spreading further and wider with many members of the Liverpool squad now reporting for international duty across the world.
