Tottenham players who tested positive in the last anti-Covid test have risen to eight.
This was announced by manager Antonio Conte, adding that five members of the technical staff have also been infected.
The total number of infected people in the Spurs group has therefore risen to 13. "Every day we have an extra positive - the words of Conte -. We are all a little scared. The players have their families, why do we have to risk? Today two more two positives. And who will be tomorrow? Me? We can't know. Better me than the players, that's for sure, but that's not right. "
Conte's criticisms are aimed at Uefa which has decided, despite the numerous defections, to have the match scheduled for Thursday evening against Rennes, valid for the Conference League, regularly played.
It is not yet sure, conversely, if the Spurs will take the field on Sunday in Brighton, since the health protocol provided for by the Premier League differs from that followed by Uefa.
