England’s self-isolating Chilwell, Mount ruled out

England players Ben Chilwell and Mason Mount will self-isolate until June 28, ruling them out of yesterday’s Euro 2020 Group D game with the Czech Republic, the team said in a statement.

The duo had been self-isolating after coming into contact with Scotland midfielder Billy Gilmour, who tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday. Both players are teammates of Gilmour’s at English Premier League club Chelsea and were pictured embracing him at the end of Friday’s 0-0 draw at Wembley. “Chilwell and Mount will isolate and train individually in private areas at England’s training base St George’s Park, with the rest of the squad returning there after tonight’s fixture against Czech Republic at Wembley,” England said in a statement. Midfielder Mount has started both England’s games while left back Chilwell has yet to feature. England said the entire squad and staff had lateral flow tests on Monday and all were again negative.
