Middlesbrough are 19th in the Championship, pending the resumption of the seasonFootballers should be allowed to choose whether it is right for them to return to playing, Middlesbrough midfielder Adam Clayton has said. "Ultimately I think it will end up with the players making the decision whether they feel right to do it or not," Clayton told BBC Radio 5 Live. "They're talking about testing every day and I think a bit more will be said in the next couple of weeks. "I don't think the fear in football is the players contracting it ourselves, although it could still have damaging effects. On Tuesday, it was reported that tackling will be banned, pitches disinfected and players restricted to groups of five when Premier League players do return to training.
