'I'm sincerely sorry' - Stoney apologises after Man Utd stars fly to Dubai as Everton game postponed due to Covid-19

The Women's Super League club gave permission for players to fly abroad for a break over the festive period but Stoney has apologised the 'mistake'

Manchester United head coach Casey Stoney has apologised and taken responsibility after some of her players flew to Dubai over the Christmas period.

Manchester United's game with Everton became the third WSL game to be called off on Friday, with a United spokesperson stating that the game is off due to positive tests at Everton. However, the Toffees' manager Willie Kirk told the press on Friday morning that "the last round of [Covid-19] testing was all negative".
