Kilmarnock hit with Covid blow as two players test positive

Kilmarnock have been hit with a blow ahead of their clash with St Johnstone tomorrow.

The club has confirmed that two players have tested positive for COVID-19 and have started self-isolating.

The Premiership match with the Perth side is unaffected, but it will come as a blow to boss Alex Dyer who is already without a number of players due to injury.

A Kilmarnock statement read: "The club can confirm that two members of the playing staff have tested positive for COVID-19 and are self-isolating at home.

"In accordance with all government and JRG guidance, we have been in touch with all of the relevant authorities to make them aware of the situation and they are satisfied that all protocols have been followed.

"All other squad members and staff were tested yesterday (Thursday) and all have returned negative results.

"Our Premiership match with St Johnstone tomorrow is unaffected and we wish those affected a speedy recovery."
