Premier League broadcasting chief suggests football's 'disgusting and unacceptable' Covid rule-breakers should be SACKED for partying and flouting lockdown restrictions while cases rise and matches are called off

A leading Premier League broadcasting figure has branded those players who breached coronavirus rules over the festive period as 'disgusting and unacceptable' and suggests they should be sacked by their clubs.

A number of top-flight stars were caught attending or hosting events over the Christmas and New Year period which broke national guidelines on households mixing.

Among them was Manchester City's Benjamin Mendy, who hosted a New Year's Eve party and three Tottenham players - Erik Lamela, Giovani Lo Celso and Sergio Reguilon - who celebrated Christmas together with West Ham's Manuel Lanzini.
