Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi says he is "feeling good" and recovered from coronavirus, but will remain in self-isolation as per Government health guidelines.
The 19-year-old's diagnosis was confirmed in the early hours of Friday morning, following on from Arsenal's announcement that head coach Mikel Arteta had also tested positive for Covid-19.
The entire Chelsea men's squad, manager Frank Lampard and his coaching team, and a number of backroom staff are all self-isolating as a result, with the Premier League set to hold an emergency meeting on Friday morning to determine the fate of fixtures taking place this weekend and beyond.
And Hudson-Odoi has now moved to reassure fans that he is doing well and hopes to be back soon after completing a necessary period of quarantine.
"As you may be aware, I had the virus for the last couple of days, which I've recovered from" Hudson-Odoi said in a short, 12-second video posted to Twitter.
"I'm following the health guidelines and self-isolating myself from everybody for the week. I hope to see everybody soon and hopefully be back on the pitch very soon."
