The Gunners are doing everything they can to stay operational despite the squad being quarantined after Mikel Arteta's positive diagnosis for Covid-19
The immediate future of English football changed the moment Arsenal announced late on Thursday evening that head coach Mikel Arteta had tested positive for coronavirus.
Up to that point, the Premier League was attempting to carry on as normal despite the ever increasing crisis that the deadly disease was beginning to bring to the country.
In fact, just an hour before Arsenal released their statement confirming Arteta was suffering from Covid-19, the Premier League had released a statement of their own confirming that the weekend’s scheduled fixtures were going to go ahead as planned - with fans even allowed to attend.
