A record 103 positive COVID-19 cases were found among players and staff in the Premier League over the past week, the league said on Monday following a raft of fixture postponements during the busy festive period. "The League can today confirm that between Monday 20 December and Sunday 26 December, 15,186 COVID-19 tests were administered on players and club staff. Of these, there were 103 new positive cases," the league said in a statement. The Premier League has had 15 games postponed so far due to COVID-19 outbreaks at various clubs. When you meet your players for one training session, it's very difficult to do this," Ranieri told reporters.
