Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta sends message to the fans after testing positive to coronavirus

Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta tested positive to coronavirus yesterday, and he has already gone into self-isolation.

The Premier League has already suspended the campaign until April 4 as a result, and top leagues across Europe have also postponed games until further notice.

Arteta appears to be recovering already, and the Arsenal boss has taken to Twitter to deliver an update:

Arsenal’s London Colney training centre has been closed, and the first-team squad and coaching staff who had recent close contact with Arteta are expected to self-isolate for 14 days in line with Government health guidelines.
