Crystal Palace to fine Eze for coronavirus breach

Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson disclosed Eberechi Eze will be fined internally but he won’t be dropped from his squad.

After the Eagles were knocked out of the FA Cup by Wolverhampton Wanderers on Friday, Eze went to Loftus Road on Saturday to cheer his former club Queens Park Rangers as they suffered a 2-0 loss against Fulham.

Although he returned with a negative coronavirus test before the match, the FA is set to look into the 22-year-old's attendance as he was not granted approval to go to the game.
