Mohun Bagan players test positive for COVID-19
The players were scheduled to play at the AFC Cup in the Maldives.
Two players from the current squad of Mohun Bagan that were slated to play at the AFC Cup in the Maldives have tested positive for Covid.
The announcement was made by the team administration and the players are currently isolating themselves.
After the issue came to light, all players have undergone testing once again and so far no one other than those two has tested positive.
The two players that have tested positive are Prabhir Das and Sahil.
Under the guidelines as established by the managing committee of AFC, players will have to provide negative reports 2 days in advance before leaving the country.
Mohun Bagan will play either Bengaluru FC or Eagles FC depending on who wins the match between the two sides.
Meanwhile, possibilities are high that Mohun Bagan might not be allowed to play their initial games as hinted by Maldives’s sports minister Ahmed Mahloof.
